Overview
The Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charity focused on giving direct financial support to families and individuals deeply impacted by acts of terrorism, natural disasters, and other emergencies. We also provide assistance to members of the military and their families and support numerous charities with important missions.
The Relief Fund was established in response to the devastating loss of 658 Cantor Fitzgerald employees in the World Trade Center terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. Following that tragic event, Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard W. Lutnick pledged 25% of the company’s profits over five years, in addition to providing 10 years of healthcare coverage to the surviving family members. This incredible commitment totaled $180 million in support to the families.
Lead by our President, Edie Lutnick and Allison Lutnick, Director of Disaster Relief Operations, this commitment to our 9/11 families ignited a culture dedicated to supporting those whose lives have been affected by tragedy. The Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund continues to honor our friends and colleagues by raising funds at our annual Charity Day event and throughout the year.
