About Gilda’s Club NYC: Gilda’s Club NYC (GCNYC) was founded in 1995 in memory of Gilda Radner, the talented comedian and original cast member of Saturday Night Live who passed away in 1989 from ovarian cancer. GCNYC’s mission is to support, educate and empower cancer patients and their families. A cancer diagnosis can be an extremely isolating experience which triggers many emotions including fear, anger, depression and an overwhelming sense of helplessness. Currently more than 4,200 men, women, teens, and children attend free support groups, educational lectures and workshops at the West Village clubhouse or at hospital partners around NYC. At Gilda’s Club NYC, we believe no one should face cancer alone. or more information about Gilda’s Club NYC, visit http://www.gildasclubnyc.org
