This annual gathering serves as a spiritual retreat for us, reigniting our commitment to raising funds for research and patient support. The event is more than a symposium; it’s a cherished family reunion, connecting us with survivors and their journeys, from the initial stages of their battle to a decade or more into survivorship. We share highlights from insightful presentations, focusing on research updates and a deeper understanding of the patient experience.
In a recent visit to Fox Chase Cancer Center, the Pancreatic Cancer Cure Foundation (PCCF) donated $30,000 to the Greenberg Pancreatic Cancer Institute. Beyond financial support, the visit showcased PCCF’s commitment to inspiring groundbreaking research, aligning with Fox Chase’s close-knit, nimble multidisciplinary team. Fox Chase’s Dr. Edna Cukierman highlights the role of curiosity in research breakthroughs, underlining how PCCF’s contributions empower exploration. This collaboration signifies more than financial aid; it represents a shared dedication to propelling pancreatic cancer research forward.
