Dana-Farber Cancer Institute shared a post on LinkedIn:
“This week, we had the honor celebrating the largest single gift in our history: a transformative joint commitment from the Josh and Anita Bekenstein and Jonathan Lavine and Jeannie Lavine families to name and help build our future cancer hospital.
Dana-Farber has been part of our lives for decades, and we have seen firsthand what’s possible when world-class research and patient care come together.
Josh and Anita Bekenstein said:
We are proud to support the future cancer hospital and the remarkable teams at Dana-Farber who care for patients every day while pushing the frontiers of science. This gift reflects our longstanding commitment to Dana-Farber’s mission and our belief that the planned cancer hospital will bring new hope to patients and families for generations.
“Cancer affects everyone – patients and the people who love and care for them,” said Jeannie and Jonathan Lavine.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reimagine what inpatient cancer care can be. Our support represents our belief in the people of Dana-Farber – the researchers, administrators, and the doctors and nurses on the front lines – and in a model of care that puts patients first. We hope this commitment inspires others to support what’s possible.
We are deeply grateful for these two families’ decades-long dedication to our mission-and for the hope and momentum this extraordinary gift brings to patients and families everywhere.”
