On Saturday, July 19, 2025, Concern Foundation celebrated 50 years of impact with an unforgettable Block Party on the iconic backlot of Paramount Studios. Over 4,000 guests came together for a night of food, fun, and fundraising — helping us raise over $2.5 million for groundbreaking cancer research. This milestone event would not have been possible without the generous support of our community and our honorees, Lisi & Steve Teller and Dr. Alexandra Levine, whose leadership and commitment helped make this year’s celebration our most successful yet.
