I'm fundraising in memory of my wonderful mom, Gigi!

16 years ago my wonderful mom, Gigi, was taken away from me by pancreatic cancer. In her memory, I created the Westchester Pancreatic Cancer Research Walk to continue my mom's legacy of helping others and to honor others who have been impacted by this deadly disease. Over the last 16 years, we have helped raise over $4,500,000 for pancreatic cancer research through The Lustgarten Foundation.

I am participating in my 16th annual Westchester Pancreatic Cancer Research walk with the Lustgarten Foundation to celebrate the progress that has been made and to power tomorrow's research. Please support my goal as I embrace Lustgarten's vision of transforming pancreatic cancer into a curable disease. Donate to my page in memory of my wonderful mom, Gigi, and help provide hope to thousands of families touched by this devastating disease.

Why Lustgarten? They are the nation’s largest private funder of pancreatic cancer research. Thanks to separate funding of administrative expenses, 100% of my fundraising and your donation funds pancreatic cancer research - research led by Lustgarten and powered by you! Together, we will raise more money for research advancements than I ever could alone.

Your contribution will help me achieve my goal so that more funding can be allocated for research into early detection and new treatments. Please share this page with any family and friends you think might be interested in donating, and join me on this journey towards a cure.
