A Big Welcome to Our Newest Board Member–Connie Milstein!

December 16, 2009

We are thrilled and proud to announce Connie Milstein as the newest member of the CURE Board of Directors!  According to Crain’s NY, Connie is among the top 100 female real estate executives in New York.  She’s an active board member for many non-profit organizations, has a law degree from North Carolina Central University Law School, and is committed to improving health care for all.

Most importantly though, because of a personal connection to our cause, Connie has become an exceedingly generous and zealous advocate to help advance epilepsy research. We are so grateful for her friendship and her support. We are all looking forward to her energy, passion, and involvement!

In fact, the matching grant, which helped us to bring in a staggering $98,000 over the past week alone for the special Friends for a Cure Research Award, was funded by Connie’s CJM Foundation.

Welcome, Connie!
