TESTIMONIALS
“It truly was an honor to be a part of such an
important event. The day was full of strong
emotions both sadness in remembering the
tragedy of the day and joy in seeing how
CF’s dedication to the 9/11 families and now
other charities (including ours) really makes a
difference… Thank you for including us and
we look forward to being able to join you again
next year.”
“What a super event. It was not only special
- Andrew Kellner,
because of the help Cantor is now giving to end Kellner Family Pediatric Liver Disease Foundation
modern day slavery in the United States and
abroad, but also to honor Cantor employees,
one of which was my business school classmate
who was working at Cantor the day of the
tragedy. I was towing a hat during Charity Day
in memory of her and the other 17 Michigan
Wolverines at Cantor that day. Your traders were
all great eggs and I think I echo the sentiment
from my colleague Natalie Morales that it was all
in good spirit for a good cause. Look forward to
the event next year–and thank you to you and
your organization’s leadership.”
“It was an honor to participate. What a great
thing Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund is doing
on Cantor Fitzgerald Charity Day – such a
wonderful living tribute to all the lives lost on
9/11, turning the day into a day of good and
positive impact on the lives of so many.”
