The James Blake Foundation invests vital seed money at the leading-edge of science: speeding the most promising work, and shortening the time it
takes to turn lab discoveries into better treatments for patients.
Proceeds raised by the foundation support the Thomas Blake, Sr. Fund at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK).
Since inception, the Foundation has donated just under $1.2M towards cancer research at MSK.
James’s father, Thomas Blake Sr., lost his battle with gastric cancer in 2004. Since 2008, the James Blake Foundation has supported the efforts of the Thomas Blake Sr. Memorial Research Fund.
