Your Philanthropy & Innovative Medical Research - Leveraging Change

At the Lerner Research Institute, we know that as donors and future donors your "bottom line" or the motivation behind your gift is simple - you want to spare future generations from having to say, "... and then my child got sick with ..." or "... and then my spouse died of ...".

If you have ever wondered if and how your donations make a difference, please join us on Wednesday, November 18 at 5:00 p.m. for the Friends of Lerner Research Institute. This event is dedicated to the partnerships that have been created over the last year between donors to the LRI and the researchers and their work that have benefited from philanthropy.

Scheduled topics and speakers:

  • The program starts at 5:30 p.m. and will be followed by a reception and tours of laboratories.
  • Speakers to be announced.

Exciting advances in stem cell research, cancer and neurological and heart disease will be discussed. You can register by contacting Connie Gast at (216) 444-2868 or gastc@ccf.org. We encourage you to register early as space is limited. If there is one "Friends of the Lerner Research Institute" speakers series you can attend, make it this one!
