2012 HONOR ROLL 

OF DONORS

ON THE COVER 

Pioneering Foray into “Dark Matter” 

Yields Unprecedented Discovery 

Dana-Farber’s Levi Garraway, MD, PhD, is senior author 

on a groundbreaking study that The New York Times 

called “a leap forward in understanding the basic 

science of one of the most lethal cancers.” Garraway 

and his team discovered two new mutations that 

collectively occur in 71 percent of malignant melanoma 

tumors. These highly “recurrent” mutations may be the 

most common mutations found to date in melanoma, 

the deadliest form of skin cancer, which is responsible 

for 9,000 deaths a year in the United States. 

These cancer-related mutations are the first to be 

discovered in what scientists call the “dark matter” 

of the genome, much of which was previously dismissed 

as “junk DNA.” Testing for cancer-causing mutations 

typically focuses only on exons—functionally important 

regions of genes that carry the code for making 

proteins. Exons make up only 1 percent of a cell’s DNA, 

but have been thought to contain most of the diseasecausing 

mutations. In this study, Garraway and his 

team sifted through data from sequencing of the 

melanoma tumors’ whole genome, including the “dark” 

parts that regulate gene activity, revealing this surprising 

discovery and shedding new light on the potential value 

of exploring the other 99 percent. 

The newly discovered mutations affect a promoter 

region—a stretch of DNA code that regulates the 

expression of a gene—adjacent to the TERT gene. 

TERT contains the recipe for making telomerase reverse 

transcriptase, an enzyme that can make cells virtually 

immortal, and is often found overexpressed in cancer 

cells. According to Garraway, considered as a whole, 

these two TERT promoter mutations are even more 

common than BRAF mutations in melanoma, and could 

cause researchers to think more creatively about the 

possible benefits of targeting TERT in cancer treatment 

or prevention. In addition to melanoma, the researchers 

said the same mutations are present in cell lines from 

some other malignancies, and that preliminary evidence 

showed they might be unusually common in bladder 

and liver cancers.

2012 HONOR ROLL OF DONORS 

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT & CEO OF DANA-FARBER CANCER INSTITUTE 

Dear Friends, 

Year after year, we constantly push the envelope for what can be realized 

in cancer research and care. I am proud to say that 2012 was no 

exception. These advancements demonstrate our commitment to the 

highest caliber of scientific exploration and clinical excellence, as well as 

the worlds of possibility within our reach. 

At the core of these 

milestones are our generous 

and loyal donors. 

The Institute took a leap forward into an exciting era for cancer research 

with plans to launch the Molecular Cancer Imaging Facility at our Harbor 

Campus in South Boston. Part of a $10 million research grant from the 

Massachusetts Life Sciences Center to develop new molecular imaging 

probes, the center will allow physicians to better diagnose and characterize 

cancer, choose targeted therapies, monitor treatment efficacy, 

and improve prospects for adult and pediatric patients. This world-class 

facility will help expedite drug discovery, ultimately leading to enhanced 

therapeutic options. 

We continued to blaze trails and make major headway toward personalized 

medicine by leading the first comprehensive study of the genetics 

behind squamous cell lung cancer. This investigation revealed that more 

than half of the tumors from this common type of cancer could be 

treated by drugs that are designed to attack the genetic abnormalities 

in each patient’s specific tumor. This finding is truly a breakthrough for 

patients with squamous cell carcinoma and imparts greater hope for 

targeted therapies in the near term. 

In addition to expanding our campus and advancing promising research, 

we reached another milestone by celebrating 10 years of the Dana-Farber 

Mammography Van. This vital resource is truly one of a kind, the only 

mobile mammography program in the state of Massachusetts. We have 

performed 34,000 mammograms since the program’s inception, with 

3,566 in 2012 alone, helping ensure that women of all socioeconomic 

backgrounds have access to our expert care regardless of cultural, linguistic, 

financial, and logistical challenges. 

At the core of these milestones are our generous and loyal donors. Today, 

we find ourselves facing tremendous opportunity and are soundly 

positioned for ongoing success. As Dana-Farber forges ahead with its 

important work, please know that we are honored to partner with you 

every step of the way. 

Sincerely, 

Edward J. Benz Jr., MD

The Lustgarten Foundation, led by executive director Kerri Kaplan (left), joined the 

Founders Society in 2012 with a significant gift to the Dana-Farber/MIT Bridge 

Project partnership to support innovative investigations into pancreatic cancer, 

including the work of Kai Wucherpfennig, MD, PhD (right) 

Why I Give 

My husband Paul received exemplary care under the guidance 

of Dr. Philip Kantoff and Dr. Julia Hayes. Without the current 

research and treatments available at Dana-Farber I’m sure we 

would not have had Paul alive as long as he was. 

Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for the 

exceptional care bestowed upon my husband by every staff 

member during his journey with cancer. The professionalism, 

compassion, dignity, and care were far beyond expectations. 

We owe so much to everyone who got us through the 

“nightmare” of cancer. Without their support, knowledge, 

guidance, and friendship we would have been lost. They are 

extraordinary people who went far beyond the call of duty. 

We thank you for giving us the opportunity to share our 

lives for those six years with the most wonderful man in 

the world. We will continue to support Dana-Farber in every 

way possible.

Why I Give 

The enclosed contribution is made in 

honor of George Demetri, MD, of 

Dana-Farber’s Sarcoma Center, and 

Simon Weitzman, my primary care 

physician in Needham, Mass. In 2001, 

I was diagnosed with a very serious 

sarcoma in my abdomen, and over 

the last decade I have been in their 

outstanding and extraordinary care. 

My beloved wife, Beverly, and I are 

deeply grateful for their professional 

expertise and their caring. Dana-Farber 

is a wonderful institution, and we are 

glad to support them when we can.

Thanks to Dana-Farber… 

…I feel more alive 

than ever. 

When most people my age 

talk about a day they’ll never 

forget, they mention getting 

their license, or a great Sweet 

16 party. For me, it’s a little 

different. 

I’ll never forget March 1, 

2001, because it was the day 

I was diagnosed with cancer. I was just 6 years old when the 

doctor said I had a bone tumor known as osteosarcoma growing 

just above my knee. The rest of the day is a blur. We went from 

doctor to doctor as my new medical team explained my treatment 

plan to me and my parents. 

It was a whirlwind, but over time everything became normal, 

almost comforting. Dana-Farber’s Jimmy Fund Clinic became 

like a second home to my family and me. Wednesdays were 

the longest because I had chemotherapy. But the staff at the 

Jimmy Fund Clinic offers so many entertaining activities to 

patients you almost forget why you’re there. I may have spent 

hours tethered to an IV that delivered my medications, but all 

I remember are the endless arts and crafts projects, and the 

time spent with nurses and doctors I came to see as friends. 

I went to summer camps for kids with cancer where I met 

some of my best friends. The Red Sox are huge supporters of 

Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund, so I got to go to games and 

even met a few players. Dana-Farber doesn’t just take care of 

their patients inside the hospital, but outside as well. 

I’m now 17 and living my life just like all my friends. I’ve 

spent a week in a wilderness survival program, hiked in Haiti, 

and climbed rocks along the beaches in Maine. Cancer treatment 

can be long and tiring, but it can also remind you of what’s 

important. 

As a cancer survivor, I feel more alive than ever. n

The Impact of Your Giving 

Leading the Charge 

to New Treatments 

for Childhood Brain 

Stem Tumors 

Dana-Farber’s Mark Kieran, 

MD, PhD, director of Medical 

Neuro-Oncology, is spearheading 

a first-of-its-kind 

clinical trial that represents 

a sea change in the way 

physicians approach treatment for diffuse intrinsic pontine 

glioma (DIPG), a rare and deadly form of childhood brain cancer. 

Little is known about DIPG because the tumors grow aggressively 

in the pons, an area in the brain stem so condensed that injury to 

even the smallest area can cause devastating side effects. 

Attempts to biopsy these tumors stopped in the 1980s 

because the procedure was considered too risky. This caused 

all progress in treating DIPG to come to a halt. For the last three 

decades, no treatment has increased survival times for the 

approximately 200 children between the ages of 4 and 10 diagnosed 

with DIPG in the United States each year. 

To change that statistic, Kieran launched a groundbreaking 

trial at Dana-Farber utilizing technologies like 3D mapping 

of the tumor using magnetic resonance imaging, and computerguided 

neurosurgery, to perform the biopsies. The resulting 

samples are screened for two molecular markers that guide 

physicians to assign patients to one of four possible treatment 

strategies. 

The immediate aim of the trial is to determine if any of the 

treatment strategies improve survival. The trial will also scan the 

tumor tissue in an effort to find new molecular targets, and potentially, 

new drugs to treat the disease. This effort, which is entirely 

funded through philanthropy, brings hope that future families 

facing a DIPG diagnosis will have better treatment options. n 

BACK COVER: 

The circle plot is one of the tools used by physician-scientists like Mark Kieran, MD, PhD, 

to identify breaks in a chromsome that may cause cancer.

Why I Give 

All the staff, caregivers, and doctors at 

Dana-Farber provided amazing medical 

and personal support, care, and love to 

my family and my sister as she battled 

and eventually succumbed to ALL. My 

hope is that my gift of life insurance 

will provide a way to give back to Dana- 

Farber, and provide funds for research 

to help other people and this absolutely 

amazing organization.

Thanks to Dana-Farber… 

…I have more time with my family. 

I hail from Oxford, Ohio, and have traveled the world as a Naval 

officer. I met my wife Jennifer in Seoul, South Korea, where 

she was an Army nurse, and we have two precious daughters, 

Taylor Louise and Rose Riley. I’m now on the faculty at the 

Naval War College in Newport, R.I. Life was good for us. 

Then in early 2010, I began to have difficulty getting a full 

breath as I conducted my workout routines at the base gym. 

As a Naval officer, I’ve had to keep myself in good physical 

condition, and I enjoyed being in the gym or out for a run 

3–5 times a week. I ate healthy, didn’t drink, and never smoked. 

So this new limitation was especially concerning. 

In 2011, after a full year with no effective diagnosis for my 

problem, I finally had to have a major operation to release my 

right lung from some “material” that was enveloping it. Well, 

that “material” turned out to be a result of lung cancer. 

I was referred to Dana-Farber a week later, and have 

been under their care ever since. I started out with standard 

chemotherapy, then entered a clinical trial for an experimental 

drug. I’ve had good effect from this drug: I’m in my 18th month 

with it and my cancer is stable—which is a very good status in 

the cancer world. We count every day as a blessing. 

We are very fortunate to be located so near Dana-Farber 

Cancer Institute, a true world-class cancer center. They have 

given me a precious gift: more time with my family. n

TRUSTEE GIVING 


Institute Trustees provide vital support for Dana-Farber, to secure 

our place at the forefront of cancer science and medicine. In 2012, 

87 percent of our Board members generously contributed more than 

$18 million to advance our lifesaving mission. These gifts took many 

forms: Trustees made major gifts to advance promising research and 

compassionate care, and support our acclaimed Yawkey Center for 

Cancer Care. They named genes in the Gene Display in the Robert J. 

Tomsich Family Gallery. They made unrestricted gifts to the Trustee 

Annual Fund, to provide flexible funding that can be used when and 

where it is needed most, and included Dana-Farber in their estate plans, 

to provide for the Institute well into the future. 

Trustees inspire others through leadership roles across the Institute, 

leading and serving on the President’s Visiting Committees, the Susan F. 

Smith Center for Women’s Cancers Executive Council, the Dana-Farber 

Leadership Council, and several Jimmy Fund Councils around New 

England. Trustees help to advance Institute priorities, such as our commitment 

to improve access to care for medically underserved populations, 

and host our annual Chief Scientific Officer Forum, providing 

thought-provoking discussions for the Dana-Farber community. Trustees 

host fundraising events in their homes and clubs, and make possible the 

Institute’s gala Palm Beach season. 

Institute Trustee Richard Smith, former chairman and 

the longest-serving member of the Board, celebrated 

50 years as a Trustee in 2012 

Our Trustees also participate in a wide variety of Dana-Farber and Jimmy 

Fund events, which raise critical funds for the Institute. Trustees run the 

Boston Marathon ® on the Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge team, bike in 

the Pan-Massachusetts Challenge, walk in the Boston Marathon ® Jimmy 

Fund Walk, dive in to Swim Across America, and host community events 

and golf tournaments, all in the name of conquering cancer. 

Beyond these pages, throughout this book, examples of the depth and 

breadth of our Trustees’ commitment to Dana-Farber and the Jimmy 

Fund send a powerful message to our community of supporters: we are 

all in this fight together. 

Chairman of the Board Josh Bekenstein and his wife 

Anita were among 13 Trustees who participated in 

the Boston Marathon ® Jimmy Fund Walk, trekking the 

13.1-mile route as Star Pacesetters

Institute Trustee Frederica Williams, president and CEO of Whittier Street Health 

Center, worked with Dana-Farber’s Faculty Director for Cancer Care Equity 

Christopher Lathan, MD, MS, MPH (left), and Whittier’s Associate Medical 

Director Mark Drews, MD, to open the Dana-Farber Community Cancer Center 

at Whittier Street Health Center 

Institute Trustee Althea Lank and her husband Bertram 

demonstrated their support for Dana-Farber’s 

acclaimed Yawkey Center for Cancer Care by naming 

a waiting area within Laboratory Services



TRUSTEE ANNUAL FUND 

The Trustee Annual Fund provides a dependable source of vital, flexible funding that is directed 

where it is needed most—from promising clinical trials to patient services. Trustees contributed 

a total of more than $1.1 million to the Trustee Annual Fund in 2012. Contributors to the Trustee 

Annual Fund in fiscal year 2012 are listed below.

It has become important for me to 

recognize Dana-Farber on my birthday. 

Rather than receive unnecessary 

presents, I have come to adopt the idea 

of a gift in appreciation for all the hard 

work and medical advances which offer 

me survivorship with quality of life. 

So in keeping with this “birthday tradition,” 

please accept this check for the 

continuous good work that you do.

Thanks to Dana-Farber... 

… I can keep doing 

what I love. 

In 2008 I discovered that my 

breast cancer, in remission 

for several years, had spread 

to my bones. I had just turned 

50 and made a list of things I 

wanted to try that year: ride a 

helicopter, taste sake, attend 

a political rally. Going back 

into cancer treatment was not on the list. 

My oncologist in Virginia suggested a consult with Eric 

Winer, MD, director of the Breast Oncology Center in the Susan 

F. Smith Center for Women’s Cancers. After meeting with him 

I began traveling to Dana-Farber every six months for checkups. 

I went back on tamoxifen, a drug I had taken for five years after 

my treatment for breast cancer in 2000. Things seemed to be 

going well. 

When the cancer cells migrated to my stomach lining in 2011, 

I joined a clinical trial under Dr. Winer’s care. It is exploring 

the side effects of two oral medications: letrozole, a hormonal 

therapy that reduces estrogen production, and BKM120, thought 

to overcome the cancer’s resistance to hormonal therapy. 

Dr. Winer coordinates my care with my oncologist in 

Virginia. I remember e-mailing Dr. Winer the night I learned the 

cancer had invaded my stomach. At 10:30 p.m., there he was, 

on my computer screen. During my visits I feel comforted by his 

presence. I know I’m in good hands. 

Trusting my care team means I can keep doing what I love— 

teaching high school math. Every month I travel to Boston on 

Wednesday afternoon, see my care team on Thursday, fly home 

that night, and am back in the classroom Friday. I want my 

students to know that having stage IV breast cancer is only part 

of my identity. I’m still me. n 

—Pam Zwemer

Why I Give 

This holiday season my teacher gave 

each of her 20 students five dollars of 

her own money. Our challenge was to 

do something good with the money and 

make it grow. I decided to have a bottle 

drive. I used my five dollars to print 

up flyers that I distributed throughout 

my neighborhood. 

All the money I raised is now being 

donated to the Jimmy Fund in memory 

of my grandfather, Joseph Michael 

Penna. My grandfather fought a courageous 

battle with cancer for many years, 

but sadly he lost his fight three years 

ago. I miss my grandfather a great deal 

and am very proud to donate this money 

in his memory.

The Impact of Your Giving 

Driving Innovation to Reduce Toxicity 

Dana-Farber scientists have developed a new high-tech method 

using nanoparticles—engineered objects so tiny they’re 

invisible to the eye—to improve radiation treatment for some 

prostate cancers. 

Currently, patients undergoing radiation treatment may 

also receive intravenous infusions of a toxic chemotherapy 

drug to make cancer cells more sensitive to the killing effects 

of X-rays. Collaborating with scientists in the Nanomedicine 

Program at Northeastern University, Paul Nguyen, MD (above, 

center), Robert Cormack, PhD (left), and Mike Makrigiorgos, 

PhD, of Dana-Farber identified a new way to deliver this chemical 

“radiosensitizer” directly to the tumor using nanoparticles, 

avoiding the toxicity of bodywide infusions. 

In some treatments, radiation is delivered internally, by 

inserting small, metal isotope-containing seeds into the prostate 

tumor. The seeds emit radiation that is effective at very short 

distances, sparing normal tissue. The seeds are separated by 

small plastic spacers to keep them in place, and Nguyen and 

his team proposed using nanoparticles to coat these spacers 

with the chemical radiosensitizer, to strengthen the effect of 

the radiation from the seeds while reducing side effects to the 

rectum, urethra, and bladder. 

This new method holds promise for patients who are not 

good candidates for systemic chemotherapy, in prostate 

cancer and potentially other cancers such as gynecologic and 

lung cancers. n

Some of my favorite memories of the 

Jimmy Fund Clinic were the nice nurses 

and doctors, and I got to play at the 

Jimmy Fund. I think Dr. Sallan is the 

best doctor ever, and he is funny. He 

wanted me to bring him an ice cream 

when I first met him. Today I am feeling 

spectacular. I would like to be a scientist 

that makes medicine and I also want 

to be a hockey player. Don’t stop giving 

money to the Jimmy Fund because the 

Jimmy Fund saved my life.

BOSTON RED SOX 


For more than 100 years the Boston Red Sox 

have been making a difference in the community, 

both on and off the field. One of the 

most important ways the Red Sox give back 

is through their longtime partnership with the 

Jimmy Fund. 

Throughout the organization, in countless 

ways, members of the Red Sox support the 

Jimmy Fund and its mission to conquer 

cancer at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. 

Red Sox President and CEO Larry Lucchino 

serves on Dana-Farber’s Board of Trustees, 

Red Sox players delight patients of all ages 

on visits to the Institute, Red Sox wives scoop 

ice cream at the Jimmy Fund Scooper Bowl ® , 

and everybody pitches in during the WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio- 

Telethon at Fenway Park—speaking on-air, answering phones, and 

meeting with patients and families. The Red Sox field a team in the 

Boston Marathon ® Jimmy Fund Walk, welcome Jimmy Fund Clinic 

patients to Spring Training, open Fenway’s doors for Jimmy Fund 

Fantasy Day, and raise funds through sales of the Red Sox/Jimmy Fund 

License Plate. Red Sox players step up to the plate as ambassadors, 

serving as Jimmy Fund Co-Captains and as spokesplayers for Rally 

Against Cancer. And during Fenway Park’s 100th Anniversary celebration 

in 2012, the Red Sox declared August “Jimmy Fund Month,” 

dedicating an entire issue of Red Sox Magazine to the Jimmy Fund 

and hosting Jimmy Fund Clinic patients for a “drive-in movie” on the 

field as their 59th Act of Kindness, in honor of our 59 years together. 

Thanks to the Red Sox, millions of dollars have been raised for our 

lifesaving mission. The contribution of the Red Sox to the Jimmy Fund, 

unlike any other in professional sports, will be one of the team’s most 

enduring legacies.

CORPORATE PROGRAMS 


Many corporations choose to partner with Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund to raise money for cancer research and patient care while marketing their brands 

and services. The following pages feature corporate partners who collectively contributed more than $10 million in fiscal year 2012. Our corporate partners are 

also listed in the Corporations, Foundations, Organizations, and Trusts section at the appropriate giving level. 

As a loyal corporate 

partner, Stop & Shop 

has supported the 

Jimmy Fund through a variety of events and 

programs for more than 20 years. In the 22nd 

year of its Triple Winner Game, Stop & Shop 

associates, suppliers, and customers gave $1 

to the Jimmy Fund at checkout to receive promotion 

cards containing great prizes, raising 

$2.5 million for the Stop & Shop Family Pediatric 

Brain Tumor Clinic at Dana-Farber. The Stop & 

Shop/Donovan-Carlson Memorial Jimmy Fund 

Golf Classic, Jimmy Fund Golf’s fourth largest 

tournament, raised $475,000 in its 21st year. 

And Stop & Shop repeated its longtime sponsorship 

of the Boston Marathon ® Jimmy Fund 

Walk, providing food for walkers and volunteers 

along the historic course. Through all its 

successful initiatives, Stop & Shop has raised a 

total of nearly $55 million for Dana-Farber and 

the Jimmy Fund since 1991. 

The Edward P. Evans Foundation 

named Dana-Farber to a national, 

$16-million consortium to advance 

treatments for patients suffering 

from myelodysplastic syndromes.

For the second summer in 

a row, each Ninety Nine 

restaurant location asked 

Great Meal. Great Deal. 

patrons to add $1 to their 

check as a gift to the Jimmy Fund, and patrons 

were eager to help—the promotion raised 

$170,000 this summer for a cumulative total 

of more than $275,000. Combined with the 

fundraising efforts of its employees’ Team 

Lanzoni, which runs the Falmouth Road Race 

and rides the Pan-Massachusetts Challenge 

in memory of Regional Vice President David 

Lanzoni, the Ninety Nine Restaurants raised 

$450,000 for Dana-Farber and the Jimmy 

Fund in 2012, for a cumulative total of more 

than $1 million.

In 2002, the Jimmy Fund partnered 

with WEEI Sports Radio Network and 

the Boston Red Sox to produce the 

WEEI Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon 

live from Fenway Park. In 2003, New 

England Sports Network joined the team and together 

the WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon has raised 

more than $30 million to support cancer research and 

patient care. This year, the 11th annual broadcast took 

place Aug. 21 and 22, over the span of 36 hours and 

two Boston Red Sox games. The event featured emotional 

and inspiring stories from Dana-Farber patients, 

doctors, researchers, and nurses, as well as professional 

athletes. Generous supporters from around the world 

made gifts via phone, web, and text message, raising 

more than $3.4 million for Dana-Farber. 

Red Sox wives were among the many volunteers staffing the phones 

during the 36-hour WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon 

After 10 years of supporting the 

Jimmy Fund through its promotion, 

Help Families Fight Cancer, 

HomeGoods kicked off its second decade of support on 

a high note—raising more than $680,000 for Dana- 

Farber and bringing the program’s cumulative total to 

more than $3.8 million. The campaign asked patrons to 

make a contribution to the Jimmy Fund at the registers in 

more than 245 participating HomeGoods stores, which 

were adorned with colorful signage displaying Jimmy 

Fund Clinic patient artwork. For the first time this year, 

HomeGoods also sold an exclusive reusable shopping 

bag, featuring artwork from a Jimmy Fund Clinic patient. 

HomeGoods extended its commitment to the Jimmy 

Fund beyond store walls again this year, by participating 

as a refueling sponsor at the Boston Marathon ® Jimmy 

Fund Walk.

Farber combine their financial goals and 

philanthropic intent to support the Institute 

for years to come. There are many ways to

Farber in a will or trust, or as a beneficiary 

of a life insurance policy or retirement 

plan assets; or establishing a life-income

DANA-FARBER SOCIETY 


This year marked the 22nd anniversary of 

the Dana-Farber Society, a group of Institute 

supporters who have chosen to include 

Dana-Farber, the Jimmy Fund, or Friends of 

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in their estate 

plans. The support provided by the more than 

700 Society members allows Dana-Farber to 

further its mission to conquer cancer while 

planning for its future. 

In June, members attended the annual 

Dana-Farber Society dinner, hosted by Society 

Co-chairs and Institute Trustees Barbara and 

Jim Sadowsky at Fenway Park, a centuryold 

landmark. Boston Red Sox President and 

CEO and Institute Trustee Larry Lucchino 

was the event’s featured speaker. Lucchino 

generously shared his outlook as a baseball 

veteran and two-time cancer survivor, driving 

home the point that the experience of a 

cancer patient is shaped by an entire team.

GENE DISPLAY IN THE TOMSICH FAMILY GALLERY 


The Gene Display, located in the Robert J. 

Tomsich Family Gallery at the Yawkey Center 

for Cancer Care, is a dynamic representation 

of a microarray, an innovative technology that 

provides Dana-Farber physician-scientists with 

genetic information that leads us to lifesaving 

cancer treatments. Each “gene” in the display 

can be inscribed in honor or memory of a 

loved one or caregiver, or with a personal 

message of hope. This year, generous donors 

named more than 70 genes, raising more than 

$475,000 for the Yawkey Center for Cancer 

Care and bringing the total raised to more 

than $2.6 million since 2008. 

For more information about our awardwinning 

Gene Display, or to name a gene, 

please contact Mary Gannon at 617-582-8830 

or visit NameAGene.org.

NAMED FUNDS 


Donors who make gifts that name funds 

may be inspired by a patient’s courage, the 

skill and compassion shown by caregivers, or 

the innovative research being conducted by 

physician-scientists. Funds can be set up as 

current-use, to help meet immediate, critical 

needs, or endowed, to last forever, adding a 

permanent legacy. 

Both current-use and endowed funds may 

be unrestricted, providing flexible support 

where it is needed most, or restricted to 

a specific research initiative, patient care 

program, or disease area. Current-use funds 

may be established with a minimum gift of 

$100,000 and endowed funds with a gift 

of $250,000 or more. 

The following list recognizes active named funds at the Institute, 

grouped by fund type. Those established in fiscal year 2012 are 

listed first with a description of their purpose. 

In 2012 Charles and Rowena Simberg permanently endowed the Rowena and 

Charles Simberg Oncology Leadership Fund, which supports several annual awards 

recognizing the extraordinary service and dedication of Dana-Farber faculty, staff, 

and volunteers 

PROFESSORSHIPS 

A professorship at Dana-Farber 

and Harvard Medical School 

is the pinnacle of academic 

achievement. These permanent 

funds underwrite a prestigious 

faculty chair at both worldrenowned 

institutions. Endowed 

professorships may be established 

with a gift of $3.3 million. 

New for 2012 

R.J. Corman Professorship

LEADERSHIP COMMITTEES

Dana-Farber is exceptionally fortunate to have a community of 

supporters who demonstrate their commitment by learning, advising,

leadership committees tirelessly volunteer their time, energy, and 

passion to one all-important cause: turning the tide against cancer. 

VISITING COMMITTEES 

Dana-Farber’s eight prestigious Visiting Committees are appointed by the President, chaired by

PAN-MASSACHUSETTS CHALLENGE 


More than 5,200 cyclists 

rode in the 33rd annual 

Pan-Massachusetts 

Challenge (PMC) Aug. 4 

and 5 to raise $37 million 

for Dana-Farber and the 

Jimmy Fund. Since its 

inception in 1980, the PMC has contributed 

an astonishing $375 million to the Institute. 

Cyclists from eight countries and 36 states 

participated in the bike-a-thon, pedaling up to 

190 miles along its various routes. The Boston 

Red Sox Foundation and New Balance served 

as presenting sponsors of the ride, and more 

than 200 generous companies provided 

in-kind support. More than 3,000 dedicated 

volunteers fulfilled dozens of critical roles 

throughout the weekend to ensure that the 

PMC, the largest and most successful athletic 

fundraising event in the country, was a success. 

Left to right: New Balance President and CEO Rob DeMartini, Stacey Lucchino and 

her husband, Boston Red Sox President and CEO and Institute Trustee Larry 

Lucchino, PMC Founder and Executive Director and Institute Trustee Billy Starr, 

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute President and CEO Edward J. Benz Jr., MD, PMC Board 

Chairman Todd Langton, and WCVB-TV President and General Manager Bill Fine 

HEAVY HITTERS 

The PMC Heavy Hitters Top 10% honors riders and virtual riders 

(those who could not ride but participated in spirit and fundraising) 

meeting the gold standard of PMC fundraising by raising $9,700 or 

more.

RUNNING PROGRAMS 


Each April, the Dana-Farber Marathon 

Challenge (DFMC) team heads to Hopkinton, 

Mass., to run the prestigious Boston 

Marathon ® and raise critical funds for the Claudia Adams Barr 

Program in Innovative Basic Cancer Research at Dana-Farber. This 

year, the 554-member team raised more than $4.4 million for the 

Barr Program, helping Dana-Farber in its race toward the ultimate 

finish line: a world without cancer. 

Established in 1987 by Institute Trustees J. Wayne and Delores Barr 

Weaver in honor of Delores’ mother, the Barr Program provides 

support for researchers exploring the basic genetic and biological 

mysteries of cancer. The Weavers have supported the team’s 

fundraising efforts and race-day heroics since its inaugural run in 1990. 

Since that time, the DFMC team has raised more than $56 million. 

The following list includes Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge participants who raised $10,000

Dana-Farber Running 

Programs saw 

tremendous growth 

in 2012, as more 

than 1,300 athletes 

chose to make their running more meaningful 

by raising critical funds for Dana-Farber while 

competing in renowned races. Participants 

join one of Dana-Farber’s official teams, or 

run in any race, of any distance, in any city 

around the globe in support of cancer care 

and research. 

In October 2011, 438 Dana-Farber team

Marathon ® presented by Dana-Farber and the

on the Dana-Farber team. And throughout 

the year, nearly 300 individuals participated 

in various races across the country through

Collectively, these determined runners raised 

more than $1.1 million to help Dana-Farber

Dana-Farber celebrated its 21st annual fundraising 

season in Palm Beach, Fla., with an 

array of events that raised nearly $1.6 million 

for cancer research and patient care, bringing 

the 21-year total to more than $26 million. 

21ST ANNUAL DISCOVERY CELEBRATION SEASON 

The 21st Annual Discovery Celebration Chairs, 

Melania and Donald Trump, welcomed guests 

to their exclusive venue, the Mar-a-Lago 

Club, Feb. 18 for this year’s event, entitled 

“A European Gala & Musical Evening.” The 

evening was filled with great cheer and musical 

surprises, including the Palm Beach Symphony, 

the Masterworks Chorus of the Palm Beaches, 

and the Sultans of Swing. 

The season officially began Jan. 20 with 

the Kick-Off Party at the Mar-a-Lago Club. 

Discovery Celebration Vice Chair and Grand 

Benefactor Patrick Park created a wonderful 

evening for guests with informal modeling 

of fashion designer Zac Posen’s spring 2012 

collection, presented by Neiman Marcus 

Palm Beach. 

The Discovery Celebration weekend commenced 

Feb. 16 with two Pre-Celebration 

Dinners, one hosted by Institute Trustee Phyllis 

Krock and her husband, Richard, and one 

hosted by Institute Trustee Donald Dwares 

and his wife, Bonnie; Institute Trustee Sandra 

Krakoff; and Institute Trustee Judie Schlager 

and her husband, Larry. The 11th Annual 

Breakfast with the Doctors, hosted by Judy and 

Jim Harpel and Vicki and Arthur Loring Feb.17, 

gave donors a unique opportunity to hear 

firsthand about the latest research advances 

from five of Dana-Farber’s distinguished 

physician-scientists. 

The Major Donor Dinner, hosted by Nassrine 

and Norman Traverse at their magnificent new 

home Mar. 12, officially marked the end of the 

Discovery Celebration season where sponsors,

KRAFT FAMILY BLOOD DONOR CENTER 


The Kraft Family Blood Donor Center saw 

783 donors generously giving 6,723 units 

of lifesaving platelets to patients at Dana- 

Farber in 2012, with 82 of those donors 

joining “Team 20” by giving 20 times 

or more throughout the fiscal year. Platelets 

are essential cells that enable blood to clot 

and control bleeding. Since chemotherapy 

and other cancer treatments can interfere 

with patients’ own abilities to manufacture 

platelets, many need regular platelet 

infusions to survive. 

The Kraft Center uses state-of-the-art platelet 

collection technology, increasing the donors’ 

comfort throughout the entire process. 

Platelets have a very short shelf life—just five 

days—so they are always in demand, making 

donors indispensable, treasured partners in 

cancer care. 

Louis Dittami (center) donated platelets for the 550th time, with Kraft Family Blood 

Donor Center staff (from left) Regina MacDougal, RN, BSN, Cheryl Riley, Donald 

Marks, Marie Fleurant, and Angel Martinez 

Donors can give up to 24 times in a 12 month 

period. If you would like to join this special 

group, or would like additional information, 

please call the Kraft Center at 617-632-3206. 

The following list recognizes donors who have made 100 or 

more lifetime platelet donations.

Why I Give 

When the daughter of a friend was 

diagnosed with cancer in 1997, I wanted 

to do something to help. I started 

donating platelets, and I’ve been doing 

it ever since. Fifteen years later, my 

friend’s daughter is still cancer free. 

It’s rewarding to know I’m doing some 

thing that can help others have a happy 

outcome like hers.

GRANULOCYTES 

Platelet donors are called in 

on rare occasions to donate 

granulocytes, vital white blood 

cells, under time-sensitive 

conditions. These donors 

answered that call during 

fiscal year 2012.

A circle plot (pictured right) is used by Dana-Farber 

physician-scientists such as Mark Kieran, MD, PhD, to 

study the interactions that take place when pieces of a 

chromosome in a cell break off and rearrange themselves. 

Cancer can occur when a gene controlling cell division 

breaks off from its normal place on a chromosome and 

attaches elsewhere. In the circle plot at right, the purple lines 

running through the circle indicate rearrangements between two 

different chromosomes, and the green indicate rearrangements within 

a chromosome. Story on page 20
