The Passing of Gary Carter: @LLS | The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Community - Marty Siederer - Gary served as our National Sports Chairman for 15 years, and raised over $8 million (in honor of his wearing number 8 on his uniform) in support of our organization through a year-round calendar of fundraisers, including an annual celebrity golf tournament for our Palm Beach Area Chapter, promotions around the companies that involved him in their advertising campaigns, an annual fashion show that Gary’s wife Sandy organized with the New York Mets wives, and making his autographed baseball card available to fans for a $25 donation to LLS.
