CHEST Foundation Donor Spotlight Spring 2015 | Page 2

PRESIDENT’S LETTER Welcome to the Spring 2015 Edition of the Donor Spotlight. The CHEST Foundation has built upon its past successes and has raised the bar. This past April, the foundation launched a patient-focused Sarcoidosis Awareness Month campaign alongside our valued partner, the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research. We would also like to highlight Peter P. Moschovis, MD, a 2014 community service grant recipient, who reveals a fascinating account of his grant in action. I know you will enjoy seeing and reading about the CHEST Foundation’s direct and indirect impact on Peter and the people he works with. With grants like these, a measureable impact on society is possible.
