The donation, made by Baltimore businessman Leonard Stoler and his wife Roslyn, will be used to build a patient care tower at the University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center.
The new $175 million building will be named after the Stolers. It will house inpatient and outpatient cancer care services and is set to open in 2023, pending regulatory approval. Maryland Republican Gov. Larry Hogan will provide $125 million in state funding for the expansion. Mr. Hogan received treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma at UMMC’s cancer center in 2015.
The Stolers cite their long relationship with UMMC, as well as their granddaughter’s successful cancer treatment 26 years ago at UMMC, as key reasons for the philanthropy. The family also gave UMMC another gift to help build the cancer center’s outpatient pavilion 15 years ago.
