One of my closest friends is Andrew Janower of Charlesbank Capital. His eight year old daughter, Samantha, has a brain tumor, and AJ has created a non-profit to find a cure called the Pediatric Low Grade Astrocytoma Foundation. Their story was recently featured in the WSJ.
American Express has named the foundation one of the finalists its considering providing a $2.5 million grant to. They will make their decisions on September 29th based on cardmembers' votes.
