The Tinka Gordon Memorial Fund
Throughout her life, Tinka was dedicated to helping women empower themselves . Younger women, many of whom she mentored in the business world, were especially important to her. Tinka would be extremely proud to support research initiated and controlled by breast cancer survivors which offers hope for prevention to future generations of women.
Initial funding for the Tinka Gordon Memorial Fund has been provided by a $280,000 donation from Tinka’s life partner, Arnie Fischman, matching a $280,000 Community Research Collaboration Grant from the California Breast Cancer Research Program. The research is conducted by Breast Cancer Over Time, in collaboration with the California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute. Our goal is to raise initial funding of at least $1 million. The fund is professionally managed by Tinka’s personal financial advisor at Moirai Wealth Management.
