In the 30+ year history of ​The Kristen Ann Carr Fund, we have honored many amazing friends of The Fund that have helped to raise awareness of our mission, and assist in our fundraising efforts. Every one of our honorees has been such a vital part of our growing community.

This year, for the first time, we ​are honoring a ​sarcoma survivor. We honor this family that has been the direct beneficiary of the wonderful work of KACF and can truly trace their successful outcome back to the doctors and researchers that have received funding from our generous donors.

Jeff Gendel was diagnosed with a difficult case of dedifferentiated liposarcoma in July 2018. Almost immediately after the diagnosis, he and Wendy connected with KACF. Virtually their entire medical team has received funding from KACF – and since the initial diagnosis and surgery, they have benefitted from expanded knowledge and treatment options for rare sarcomas. During treatment, Wendy and Jeff agreed to allow his cancer cells to be researched in the Sam Singer Lab at MSK, funded by KACF, to help others impacted by sarcoma. The entire Gendel extended family have been enthusiastic supporters of our organization ever since that first diagnosis and have jumped in with an attitude of “how can we help”?

Wendy and Jeff are a shining example of how KACF’s efforts can literally save lives, and bring a tangible component to the specific impact of your donations over the years. It is our extreme pleasure to celebrate them as our honorees at this year’s A Night to Remember.
