the Weiser Family Center for
Breast Cancer.

matching gift to encourage
additional gifts to the center,
which will be housed within

experiences through the

patients and their families, as
well as expanding opportunities
for education and research
around breast cancer
“The Weiser Charitable
Foundation is proud to make
this transformational gift to
improve outcomes in all aspects
of breast cancer prevention,
treatment and survivorship, and
offer hope to those who need
it most,” Weiser, a real estate
investor and president of the

in a news release.
“We are honored to assist
in establishing a center that
will provide expanded care
throughout patients’ breast
cancer journeys by building new
programs, testing innovative
ideas and transforming the
patient experience for breast
cancer patients.”

discoveries, open new insights
and strengthen Michigan
Medicine’s place as one of
the nation’s leading medical
centers,” President Santa Ono
