Active Det. Vincent Catalano has a two-year-old son Christopher who is battling cancer.
Christopher has been undergoing chemotherapy treatment at Columbia University Medical Center for over a year. Since his diagnosis of Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis, Christopher has been under the excellent care of Dr. Justine Kahn and her team. In that time, Christopher and Dr. Kahn have become the best of friends!
To honor that bond and help other children with their fight, Christopher has formed his “Kahntourage” and would love for you to help him raise money for Hope & Heroes. Hope & Heroes funds the life-saving work on childhood cancer and blood disorders at Columbia University Irving Medical Center – including cutting-edge research, the newest and most advanced treatments, support for families, and they provide care that always puts children first. Columbia is home to the largest and most comprehensive pediatric oncology and blood disorder programs in the country, treating over 1,500 patients a year with high-quality, compassionate care. Funding from Hope & Heroes will help ensure that every child, regardless of ability to pay, gets the very best care.
The 11th Annual Hope & Heroes Walk will be held on Sunday, September 26, 2021, and they can use your help! If you can participate, or even donate online, please visit —
