Doug Hawkins, Group Chair at Children’s Oncology Group, shared on LinkedIn:
“I am grateful that pediatric oncologists from Ann and Robert Lurie Childen’s Hospital (Drs. Amit Sabnis, Amy Walz, Angela Waaders, Elizabeth Sokol, and Lindsay Schwartz) and from Comer Children’s Hospital (Dr. Mark Applebaum) were honored guests at the Jeffrey Pride Foundation ‘Fun’-Raising Gala on November 7, 2026, in Northbrook, IL.
Since its founding in 2000 in memory of Jeffrey Pride who succumbed to B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the Foundation has donated more than $7M to the Children’s Oncology Group (COG) for clinical trial correlative biology science and COG’s registry and biobanking study, Project:EveryChild.
COG is so fortunate to have the generous and sustained support from the Jeffrey Pride Foundation, including Phil Fijal (Board President), James Pride (Board Vice-President), Kathy Murphy (Board Treasurer), Jan Fijal (Board Secretary), and Ann Pride (Board Member).”
