Pediatric Cancer Foundation and Neiman Marcus held an east-meets-west Opening Fall Luncheon on Thursday, September 20, at Ridgeway Country Club in White Plains, NY. Two hundred and fifty guests attended. Lecturer, Dr. Frank Lipman, director of "The Eleven Eleven Wellness Center," spoke about "Healthy Living in a Toxic Environment." Doors opened at 10:30am for shopping at special boutiques where a percentage of sales were donated to Pediatric Cancer Foundation. Part of the proceeds from the Luncheon will support research in complimentary medicine as well as provide dollars for a Pediatric Cancer Foundation Oncology Unit and PCF Infusion Rooms. From left, Judith Elkins, president of the foundation; Mindy Schulman, co-chairwoman of the luncheon and board member; and Hillary Emmerman, foundation vice president and co-chairwoman of the luncheon. Ridgeway Country Club in White Plains, NY, was the site of a large Fundraiser in September. Trish McEvoy partnered with Henri Bendel's to create a day which raised close to $100,000. The proceeds of this event went to support brain tumor research.

Since 1976 the Foundation has contributed a total of $2.4 million to the Pediatric Oncology Department. Its members have pledged an additional $500,000 contribution. A young man in Scarsdale, NY offered to bike miles as a special charity project for his Temple. He gave the proceeds from his 14-mile ride to PCF. "As part of my becoming a Bar Mitzvah, I will be performing a 'mitzvah' project," the boy said. "I have chosen to organize a Bikeathon for Pediatric Cancer Foundation because I had two family members who were diagnosed with leukemia when they were both only 13 years old." The enthusiasm he created was so exciting we decided to have our second annual Bikeathon on the Bronx River Parkway on June 2, 2002.

ROSWELL, the hit show that was officially picked up by the UPN, dedicated their December holiday special to PCF. We had overwhelming response from the Roswell fans who sent money, toys, letters and created their own satellite events across the country. We even received a cash gift of $4 from a Roswell fan in Brazil! Many thanks to the loyal Roswell supporters for holding the hand of a child. Compassionate fans felt compelled along with corporate sponsors to send a child with cancer to visit the Roswell set and meet the actors. Thanks to the Roswell trip's corporate sponsors, who include Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Marriott, Merrill Lynch, and Warner Brothers. 26,000 fan club members want to organize a thank-you to the UPN for picking up the show. A campaign is running on the website crashdown.com asking people to call in donations, send checks, and participate in the PCF toy drive, in thanks to the UPN. The campaign officially runs until June 7 and unofficially until the end of August. To date this campaign has raised over $16,400! E-mail us if you would like to learn how to become a Roswell PCF supporter. Roswell fans: click here for a Thank-You letter from PCF! Read a Thank You from Chicago's Roswell fans
