Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada receives donation from The Adam Fanaki Brain Fund
The Adam Fanaki Brain Fund was established in February 2020 to provide organizations helping brain cancer patients and their caregivers with necessary funding for programs and services.
Adam Fanaki was one of Canada's brightest and most accomplished lawyers who lived in Toronto with his wife Janet and their children Isobel and Sam. The family launched the fund following his death from glioblastoma, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. He was only 51 years old.
The family firmly believes in giving back in their grief. By helping the organizations that are serving those going through a deadly brain tumour diagnosis, gives Janet, Isobel and Sam a purpose and strengthens their resilience.
Over $100,000 has been pledged by generous individuals and Canadian businesses to The Adam Fanaki Brain Fund. We especially thank Davies, Ward, Phillips & Vineberg LLP for being our lead donor, as well as major donors BMO Private Wealth, Brian Facey and Julie Soloway, Borden, Ladner, Gervais LLP and TORYS LLP.
We are proud to announce the first large donation to the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada. This financial contribution will assist the BTF in continuing to distribute their essential patient and caregiver handbooks, as well as funding the increasingly utilized virtual support programs.
