Pam Faerber (Liberal Arts '71)

Cancer Center, Gift of Cash and Securities

Pam Faerber feels that, “a great university provides a rich culture for a community.  Purdue does an excellent job of reaching beyond the Lafayette community.  The values taught there affect the world.”

Pam has given generously to the Purdue Cancer Center.  Being a survivor of ovarian cancer Pam says that “the research being done at Purdue through the Cancer Center is state of the art; and is impressed by the sharing between departments of what happens within the cancer center.  Every family in America have been or will be affected by cancer.”  Pam is committed to helping fund research that will lead to early detection and cures of cancer.  “What a great thing—I can give to cancer research and give to Purdue all at one time!”

When asked about what impact she hopes her gift will have, Pam states, “We all want to see real strides in finding cancer in early stages and methods to cure it.  In addition to results, I hope others give because they see a ground swell of support from Purdue alumni and fans.”
