Robert Moser, president and CEO of Prime Group Holdings LLC, a New York-based real estate group that owns self-storage and other real estate interests, recently donated $2.5 million to the new pediatric emergency room being built at Albany Medical Center in Albany, N.Y. The gift was made to the $50 million medical center during its annual Light Up the Night fundraising gala, according to the source.
Albany Medical has raised $17 million of its $20 million goal. The 70,000-square-foot children’s facility, adjacent to the center’s primary ER, will be named The Massry Family Children's Emergency Center after donors who contributed $5 million toward the project. It’s expected to open next month, the source reported.
"Our gift reflects our family's commitment to improving the quality of everything that our region does for children," Moser said. "The pediatric emergency department—like The Cleft-Craniofacial Center at Albany Med, which we are also proud to support—is focused squarely on children, making a difficult time easier for them and their families. [It will also provide] a safe environment to get the best possible care and improve their overall experience. We are very pleased to be part of this important initiative."
"Thanks to the Moser family's generous donation, the children of our region will not only have access to excellent care from the finest and best-trained pediatric physicians and staff in our region, but they will receive it in a place of their own, a place that was created for children and families—a place like no other," said James Barba, CEO of Albany Medical.
The Moser Family contributed $2.5 million to The Cleft-Craniofacial Center last year.
Headquartered in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., Prime Group owns and manages more than 200 self-storage facilities in 23 states. Its operating portfolio comprises more than 13.5 million rentable square feet.
