Many people have found great satisfaction by making gifts in memory of a friend or loved one, or to honor someone who is fighting cancer. Others have made important contributions as a way of recognizing those who are making a difference in the lives of cancer patients, such as a physician or nurse. A gift may be designated for any occasion -- a birthday, anniversary, or holiday -- or used to express appreciation or love. When the gift is received, Memorial Sloan-Kettering sends a special letter of notification to the person or family indicated by the donor. The amount of the donation is not revealed. The donor also receives an acknowledgment letter.
You may make a gift in honor or in memory of someone online or by mail.
