One of Sylvester’s most beloved fundraising programs was reborn in 2019. Cards for a Cure, formerly known as Coupons for a Cure, was launched with a new name, look, and website.
CardsforaCure.net allows anyone to easily make a donation toward life-saving cancer research at Sylvester by simply sending a card. The program offers five exclusive designs, and one special holiday edition, with messages of hope and positivity that can be sent to anyone, anywhere. Now everyone can go online and choose a card that truly makes a difference for any occasion. Since its launch, the cards have grown in popularity and have been spreading love to the community in recognition of birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, graduations, in honor or memory of loved ones, or even simple messages of encouragement.
The program was originally created by the late Denny Feinsilver after her husband Paul was diagnosed with cancer. Because he received life-saving treatment at Sylvester, the advancement of cancer research became Denny’s passion. A former member of the Sylvester Board of Governors, Denny and her family generously supported a number of Sylvester programs, helping more people living with cancer to lead longer and happier lives – even before her own breast cancer diagnosis. Although Denny lost her battle with cancer in 2013, her legacy continues today thanks to the passion and determination of Denny’s daughter, Corey Feinsilver.
Sylvester is truly grateful for devoted partners like the Feinsilver family. Like Denny, Cards for a Cure is the unique combination of optimism, positivity, and meaningful service to the community.
