Robert Perks Memorial Fund for Cancer Support
Bob Perks was a native of State College, attending State High and then receiving both his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Penn State. Bob was an avid sports fan and a four-year member of the Penn State baseball team. He was devoted to helping cancer patients long before facing his own challenges with the disease. He was a founding member of Coaches vs. Cancer locally and remained active with the organization until his own battle with cancer prevented him from doing so. It was his goal to bring cancer support to our local community. This fund was established by Blake and Linda Gall in memory of their great friend Bob Perks. This fund supports the operations and programs of the Bob Perks Cancer Assistance Fund, which helps ease the financial burden of individuals and families in our community who are battling cancer by providing funding for basic necessities so their focus is on their treatment and recovery.
