Cancer is Sad but Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center is happy..

Because Daily News owner Mortimer B Zuckerman (Jewish), has pledged $100 million to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. This is his largest donation to date and one of the largest that has ever been given to any institution. Kudos Mr. Zuckerman.

It is an amzing gift for one person to give that much to the hospital.

A little persepctive though, MSKCC's operating budget the past few years hovers at nearly one and a half billion dollars.

thats over a thousand hundred millions.
