CRE Leaders Turn Out for 16th Annual LCRF Fundraiser

The Lung Cancer Research Foundation’s 16th annual gala, the Strolling Supper, raised over $1.3 million, with considerable support from New York’s real estate leaders. To date, LCRF has funded 362 research grants totaling nearly $33 million, and the Strolling Supper continues to be its largest annual fundraiser.

“The Strolling Supper brings together lung cancer advocates and supporters for an evening of celebration and awareness,” said CBRE’s Mary Ann Tighe, vice chair of LCRF’s board. “We are grateful to everyone who has supported the Strolling Supper, helping to make it a success year after year.”

This year’s Strolling Supper Research Grant sponsors included: Blum Family Foundation on behalf of Richard C. Blum and Senator Dianne Feinstein; Broad Street Development; The Durst Organization; Marjorie M. Fisher Fund; Greenlight Capital Inc.; Office of Dr. David Hidalgo; Pershing Square Capital Management; The Tighe Hidalgo Foundation; Tishman Speyer; and Tom Zangas Memorial Lung Cancer Foundation.
