AHN receives $25 million gift for Cancer Center

Allegheny Health Network has received a $25 million gift in order to add improvements to the network’s Cancer Center, including its more than 35 clinical locations.

The gift comes from James R. “Jim” Fitterling, executive chairman and former president and CEO of Dow Inc., an American materials science and chemical manufacturing corporation.

AHN said it plans to use the funds for “clinical research and patient-care priorities” including biomarker moonshot expansion, cell therapy clinical trials and multi-omics research.

In Fitterling’s honor, AHN will rename its Cancer Center and its clinical locations to the AHN James R. Fitterling Cancer Center.
