Her ongoing long-term rehabilitation has gone beyond all expectations, but requires significant resources that are not covered by insurance. The Valerie Piro Fund, established by the Stuyvesant High School Alumni Association, is currently accepting donations to be used towards her medical costs. To find out more about Valerie’s impressive progress and to contribute to the Valerie Piro Fund, please visit: Valerie Piro '09 Fund.
