One Million Dollar Trust Donated to RGI

We are very pleased to announce the generous gift of $1,000,000 by Mr. Joseph Rumbaugh.

The Board of Trustees, Scientists, Researchers, and Staff wish to thank Mr. Rumbaugh and his family for this generous gift.

To honor Mr. Rumbaugh, the Board of Trustees of the Institute has added his name to that of Mr. Leo Goodwin. Our new name is officially the:

Rumbaugh-Goodwin Institute for Cancer Research, Inc. (RGI).

Mr. Rumbaugh was surprised to learn that something that he really couldn’t feel and didn’t hurt could end up as such a devastating disease. He once stated that "... if I want to do something. I’d better do it now," He was dedicated in helping to find a cure for cancer and his legacy will help RGI in this quest.

At RGI we continue to explore basic laboratory concepts with the goal to transfer the health benefits to the clinical setting. We encourage and strive for cross-fertilization of knowledge between our researchers and the physicians who treat patients.
