My friend and partner, NYPD Detective John Lombardi, was diagnosed with Stage 2 Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Oropharynx on September 17, 2020.
He will start an intense combination of radiation and chemo therapy treatment soon.
He is a dedicated Father, friend and Detective who has dedicated his life to helping others. I want to give back to him and his family during their time of need, as he has given back to so many others.
Let's rally behind John and help alleviate any financial stressors that he may experience during this time. Help show your support by considering a donation and sharing this fundraiser on all social networks!
John currently works at Queens Transit Robbery Squad and previously worked at Transit Queens Task force, Transit District 23 and Special Operations Division.
Thank You.

Detective Lombardi would like to thank everyone who donated to his campaign. He wants everyone to know that he has been cleared by his doctors and is now cancer free. He attributes this to the donations and help he received from all. He is humbled by this experience and peoples willingness to help someone they may not know.
