Dedicated, motivated leadership
Castleman’s Awareness & Research Effort (“CARE”) was founded in 2006 by patient-advocate and current Board president, Greg Pacheco, and his wife and current Board secretary, Charlyn Pacheco, to raise funds and awareness for Castleman disease research. CARE and and the Castleman Disease Collaborative Network (CDCN) joined forces in 2012. Today, we are led by a dedicated Board of Directors which includes many members from CARE’s original Board of Directors along with CDCN Co-founder David Fajgenbaum and new members.
