Raising the Bar: A Celebration of Memorial Sloan Kettering Fundraisers (May, 2018)

Not only was Cancer Can't Kill Love passionately represented at MSKCC's newly re-branded donor recognition reception on May, 3, 2018, but it was also one of just a handful of fundraisers treated to a VIP tour of Dr. Daniel Heller's lab, which studies and develops nanotechnologies for cancer drug-delivery and early detection, helping to provide the most precise and personalized cancer care through bioengineering and other exciting innovations.

Dr. Heller later thanked a room full of donors - who, in 2017 alone, raised a collective $5 million for MSKCC - for helping make "science fiction" into "science fact."

​We were psyched to be among them.
