The Catie Hoch Foundation

The Catie Hoch Foundation is an all-volunteer organization where every
dollar delivers fun for kids and funds for a cure.

 The Catie Hoch Foundation is dedicated to helping children while they are in treatment for cancer.  A child’s cancer diagnosis is devastating and the strains on the family are enormous – emotional, physical and financial.  We strive to help alleviate some of those burdens.  Because we know first-hand what these families are goingthrough, we are able to meet the needs that are not met by other means. We make a difference in the lives of children with cancer.

RAISING DOUGH FOR CATIE HOCH FOUNDATION
Pasta Pane in Clifton Park Selects Catie Hoch Foundation as
November 2010 Recipient For Raising Dough Program

All patrons of Pasta Pane who order specific menu items will be helping kids take a break from cancer.  "The menu that gives back" is a way for Pasta Pane to support the well known local organization.  In November, 30% of the proceeds from these four menu items will be donated to the foundation.  These items include Focaccia ai Formaggi (appetizer), Rosalina White pizza, Pasta Puttanesca (entree) and Creme Brulee.
Director of Marketing for Pasta Pane, Bill Gathen, said, "We would be honored to have the Catie Hoch Foundation as our November recipient.  What this foundation does to help alleviate the burdens felt by families with children receiving treatment for cancer is inspiring and perhaps Raising Dough is a way for us to make some difference through the foundation as well."

Part 1 of the Event

 

2011
David Sternberg Rides Again

Once again, a colleague of Larry’s, David Sternberg of GE Corporate Finance and Operations, has agreed to use his participation in a full Ironman Triathlon as an opportunity to raise money for the Catie Hoch Foundation.  Last year, David participated in a partial Ironman and raised over $21,000 for the foundation.  David is hoping to top that mark this year, and is confident he can do so with the help of his GE colleagues (both tax & nontax), friends and family.

The Catie Hoch Foundation is an all-volunteer organization, where every dollar that is raised goes out to help the families of pediatric cancer patients at the following hospitals:

  • Albany Medical Center
  • Dana Farber (Boston)
  • Fletcher Allen Healthcare (Vermont)
  • Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (NYC)
  • Strong Memorial Hospital (Rochester)

We hope you will consider sponsoring David in this most grueling event, by donating to the Catie Hoch Foundation.  The GE Foundation will match all donations, dollar-for-dollar.  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
