Metropolitan Commercial Bank and the Greg Wolf Fund Announce 18th Annual Golf Outing to Support Blood Cancer Patients and Research
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Metropolitan Commercial Bank (“MCB” or the “Bank”), the Official Bank of the Greg Wolf Fund, and the Greg Wolf Fund today announced their continued collaboration in support of the Fund’s mission, highlighted by the upcoming 18th Annual Greg Wolf Fund Golf Outing, to be held on Tuesday, June 16, 2026, at Manhattan Woods Golf Club in Nyack, New York.
The annual event brings together clients, partners, and community members to raise critical funds for individuals and families affected by leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and other blood cancers, and to support ongoing research.
Founded in 2005 in memory of Gregory Joseph Wolf, the Greg Wolf Fund was established to address the financial challenges faced by patients undergoing treatment. Inspired by Greg’s firsthand experience, the Fund provides immediate financial assistance—often within 24 hours—to help cover essential needs such as medications, transportation, and family support during treatment.
To date, the Greg Wolf Fund has contributed more than $2.5 million to cancer research and over $500,000 directly to patients and families. The Fund operates with a zero-overhead model, ensuring that every dollar raised goes directly to those in need or to advancing research.
“Supporting the Greg Wolf Fund is deeply meaningful to everyone at Metropolitan Commercial Bank,” said Mark R. DeFazio, Founder, President & Chief Executive Officer of Metropolitan Commercial Bank. “George Wolf’s longstanding leadership on our Board and the mission behind the Fund reflect the values we care about—community, compassion, and making a real difference.”
The Greg Wolf Fund works closely with medical professionals and leading institutions, including the University of Pennsylvania and Barts Cancer Institute in London, to identify urgent patient needs and support advancements in treatment and care.
“Events like the Golf Outing bring people together around a shared purpose,” said George J. Wolf, Jr., Board Member of Metropolitan Commercial Bank. “Every contribution helps us respond quickly to families in difficult moments and continue moving forward in the fight against blood cancers.”
