Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States, Passes Away 

It is with a heavy heart that we remember the life of valiant Lustgarten Foundation advocate, friend, and honorary chairman of our Corporate Advisory Board, President Jimmy Carter, 39^th President of the United States, following his passing on Sunday, December 29^th, 2024.  

President Carter lent his strength and voice to champion the urgent need for the advancement of pancreatic cancer research. He was a remarkable man who remained active in public life until his passing. In 2002, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his work with the Carter Center, the embodiment of his commitment to human rights and the alleviation of human suffering. He left an indelible mark on this country and the world and will be greatly missed.  

Our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time.
