Young brothers donate hard-earned cash to support cancer patients

Inspired by the tireless volunteer efforts of their mother, Christiana Care trustee Penny Saridakis, who co-chairs the Friends of the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center, brothers Harry, Sander and Dean Saridakis donated money they earned from pulling weeds, washing windows and cleaning the car—plus some rewards from the Tooth Fairy—to help cancer patients in need.

“People who walk through this building need all the help they can get,” Bank of America endowed medical director Nicholas J. Petrelli, M.D., told the brothers when he learned of their gift. “We’re so proud of what you’ve decided to do at such a young age.”
