Event Details

Please join us for a very special "one-night only" event as one of Staten Island's own – Matthew Zachary (Greenzweig) – returns to his roots for his first island concert in nearly 20 years. An alumni of Tottenville High School, '92, Matthew was a 21-year old college senior and aspiring concert pianist when he lost use of his left hand, was diagnosed with pediatric brain cancer and told he'd likely never perform again. His life was saved by doctors at SIUH and NYU and he's still performing 13 years later. Come share in a unique holiday performance showcasing invigorating original music inspired by beating the odds. Limited engagement. Only 150 tickets available. Reception to follow.

 

A portion of the proceeds will proudly benefit the Childhood Cancer Program

of the Staten Island Region of The American Cancer Society

I'm Too Young For This!



70,000 Americans between 15-40 are diagnosed with cancer each year. That's one every eight minutes. This is not OK.

The I'm Too Young For This! Cancer Foundation is the nation's largest support community for the next generation of patients, survivors and caregivers between 15-40.  Our mission is to empower young adults affected by cancer.

We build online and offline support communities nationwide through local events, social media, educational workshops, an international annual conference – The OMG! Cancer Summit – and a live weekly talk radio program, The Stupid Cancer Show, which airs Mondays at 8pm ET.

A TIME Magazine Best 50 website and FOX News Top 10 Healthcare Blog, we support a global following and hundreds of thousands of friends, fans, readers, listeners and members. Since our launch in 2007, we have helped bring the cause of 'cancer under 40' to the national spotlight and rallied a brand new crop of activists to give a much needed voice to our forgotten population.
