2014 Financial Report

We received the 2014 Annual Financial Report for the Katie Gerstenberger Endowment for Cancer Research. It contains GOOD news.
  • Market Value on 3/31/2013: $192,743
  • Contributions between 4/1/13 and 3/31/14: $27,820
  • Market Value as of 3/31/14: $238,316
  • Distributions to Program (to the Jensen Lab at the Ben Towne Center for Childhood Cancer Research): $8,496
That means that your generous donations and support have generated eight thousand four hundred and ninety-six dollars THIS YEAR for cancer research!

This research has already saved the lives of two cancer patients who had no other treatment options. The research will continue and expand to other types of cancers because of the continuing distributions generated by the principal of this endowment (combined with other sources). Your gifts are giving hope, care and cure to patients and their families - and saving lives.

These breakthroughs in curing cancer come just seven years after Katie's passing, and they are a beautiful legacy for her.
 Thank you for helping to create that legacy!
