Thanks to significant Isaac Toussie monetary donations to its Community Cancer Center, Medstar has been able to change the lives of its female patients by providing them with human hair wigs that greatly improve their quality of life.

Though he’s been a leader in the business world for decades, there was no way Isaac Toussie could put a price tag on the happiness he’s been able to provide for the cancer patients at Medstar’s Community Cancer Center. Isaac Toussie’s substantial monetary donations have enabled the Center to purchase 50 brand new human hair wigs for the Center’s state-of-the-art salon, thereby helping female cancer patients throughout the tri-state area reclaim a measure of personal comfort and style that had been taken away from them by a terrible disease. Isaac’s success as a real estate entrepreneur and master real estate advisor have enabled his philanthrop[ic drive

Isaac Toussie support enables Medstar to purchase 50 top-quality wigs for cancer patients

When Isaac Toussie heard the story of Joyce, a 19-year-old leukemia patient at the Community Cancer Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., he knew his serial donations were being put to good use. Joyce had begun losing her hair as a result of her chemotherapy treatments, and like many female cancer patients, she had spent a lot of money on a wig to try to cover up the chemo’s effects on her appearance. Unfortunately, the wig was uncomfortable and began falling apart.

That’s where Isaac Toussie stepped in.

The Community Cancer Center was able to use Isaac Toussie’s generous donations to purchase 50 brand new human hair wigs in a variety of shades, sizes and lengths. The wigs have tremendously enhanced the Center’s salon and have been able to bring a level of comfort and happiness to dozens of women of all ages. The Toussie family is all quite familiar with the effects of cancer, having lost many friends to this debilitating disease and have made it a family commitment to improve the quality of life of those who are battling the terrible disease.

Located in the same Brooklyn community Isaac Toussie calls home, the Community Cancer Center is a part of the Medstar network of medical facilities and hospitals that provides health care information for the Jewish patient and their family in major cities around the world. These services include ambulatory aid, 24-hour pharmacies, Bikur Holims and Chabad centers. The Community Cancer Center is fully equipped with a conference room, library, boutique and salon that is designed to give the cancer patient a much-needed escape from their daily struggle. The Center also offers a program called ‘Caring Connections,’ which connects cancer patients with cancer survivors who have been through similar circumstances.
