Andrew Auerbach from BMO Private Wealth on why they are supporting The Adam Fanaki Brain Fund
Welcome to The Adam Fanaki Brain Fund
Adam Fanaki was one of Canada's brightest lawyers, an accomplished public speaker and a terrific dad, husband and friend. He was loved by all who knew him.
In 2016, at the age of 47, Adam was diagnosed with glioblastoma, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. He succumbed to the disease on February 15, 2020.
He lived with GBM the same way he lived his life prior to his diagnosis. With perseverance, determination, a great sense of humour and adventure. Adam was an example of how to fully live life.
To pay tribute to him, his wife Janet and children Isobel and Sam established The Adam Fanaki Brain Fund. The fund aims to help those who are living with a brain cancer diagnosis and provide leading organizations with finances to assist them.
Our goal is to make having a brain tumour a little less stressful for patients and caregivers. We are working closely with the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada and The Odette Cancer Centre at Sunnybrook Hospital as well as St. Michael's Hospital Neurosurgery Department.
Donations can be made through the secure site, My Charitable Impact, with tax receipts provided immediately. Full transparency can be assured and all proceeds go directly to patients and their care partners.
Thanks to a generous donation, Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg LLP has been named the lead donor of The Adam Fanaki Brain Fund. This partnership will continue through to 2024.
We are also excited to announce our major donors: BMO Private Wealth, Brian Facey and Julie Soloway, Borden, Ladner Gervais LLP, Nick and Nicki Perpick, TORYS LLP, Robert M. Ben and Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP with Huy Do and Tony Di Domenico.
And of course we are extremely grateful to the many individuals who have shown their trust and confidence in us through their donations. Friends, family, colleagues and strangers have supported us and we find that totally heartwarming and amazing.
