Morristown, NJ – October 9, 2025 – The Pediatric Cancer Foundation of New Jersey (PCFNJ) proudly announces the establishment of its Governing Board, a diverse group of leaders united by a shared commitment to supporting children and families facing the challenges of pediatric cancer.
The Governing Board is chaired by Dr. James C. Wittig, Founder of PCFNJ and world-renowned orthopedic oncologist, whose vision for the Foundation stems from decades of caring for children and families navigating life-altering diagnoses.
The board brings together professionals and advocates from multiple disciplines:
- Dr. James C. Wittig, Founder, Chairman, and Head of the Educational Grants Committee
- Brad Huntington, Treasurer, with an oversight and guidance role.
- Cynthia Artin, Secretary and Executive Director.
- Dr. Christopher Hubbard, Member at Large & Educational Medical Grants Committee
- Christian Charles Wittig, Board Member at Large.
- Jeffrey Singman, Board Member at Large.
- Suzanne Falla, PhD, Board Member and partner through her Brain Fitness Foundation, expert in mental health solutions for children and families, and entrepreneur.
- Arlene “Reenie” Kleinsorge, Board Member and twice-cured cancer patient of Jim’s, who is leading, as our Family Ambassador, support services
- Ryan Mulvany, Attorney at Stevens Lee, who will provide oversight on Legal Matters & Strategy.
- Keith Saracinello, Lifelong friend and a Board Member at Large.
- William “Bill” Adiletta, Visionary in Healthcare Technology and Entrepreneur, and a Board Member at Large.
- Roberta Moldow PhD., Professor (Retired), Seton Hall University, Dr. Wittig’s professor, Member at Large.
This board reflects not only professional expertise but also enduring bonds of friendship and a sense of community. Notably, Dr. Wittig and board member Keith Saracinello have been friends since before kindergarten — a testament to the character and commitment that underpins the Foundation’s work.
“Each of our board members brings unique gifts and perspectives, but we are united by one goal: to be a source of hope, healing, and strength for children and families at a time when they need it most,” said Dr. James C. Wittig, Founder & Chairman.
“PCFNJ is all about family,” said Cynthia Artin, Executive Director of PCFNJ. “From parents and siblings to extended relatives and friends, cancer affects everyone in a child’s circle of care. Our Governing Board embodies this spirit, combining professional knowledge with lived compassion to guide our mission forward.”
The Foundation’s first in-person board gathering will be held in early October in Morristown, marking the beginning of PCFNJ’s collective efforts to expand programs, provide practical and emotional support, and fund vital research for children with cancer in the Garden State.
