The Alliance of Automotive Service Providers of New Jersey (AASP/NJ) made a $1,000 donation to the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to help fund prostate cancer research and treatment.
AASP/NJ raised funds during its fifth annual Race Night event at Pole Position in Jersey City.
The Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) offers personalized cancer medicine and works to change how the world treats cancer with new discoveries in laboratories and new outpatient facilities.
“Unfortunately, although we have seen quite a few of our members deal with this cancer recently, the fact is that everyone knows someone who has been touched by this horrible disease,” said Jeff McDowell, president of AASP/NJ. “It is my hope that we, as an association, are able to make even the tiniest difference to help MSK in their research, and we look forward to working with them not only with Race Night but with the Northeast show as well.”
