History
Established in 2002,[lower-alpha 1] the foundation was named after Jennifer Diamond who died from a rare form of cancer, appendiceal carcinoma, at age 30.[lower-alpha 2]
The foundation raised money to help create cancer information libraries in cancer centers and hospitals throughout California, with space donated by each institution.[3][4] Between 2007 and 2013, eight cancer information libraries have been opened across Central and Southern California, including at USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center and Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center.[5]
In October 2012, Los Angeles City Councilman Mitchell Englander presented the foundation with a commendation in recognition of its programs and services.[6]
As of 2013, the foundation began providing free cancer support programs.[2][7]
