Recognizing the JEGS Foundation and Coughlin family generosity

The Coughlin family's personal experience with cancer formed their commitment to raise public awareness about cancer prevention and to raise dollars for cancer research.

Recognizing the JEGS Foundation and Coughlin family generosity

Reaching out through their Delaware, Ohio-based, family-run businesses of JEGS Mail Order and Team JEGS Racing, the JEGS Foundation for Cancer Research provides access to information, support for novel cancer research and an avenue to become involved to make a difference.

Since 2014, The JEGS Foundation has awarded an individual who has demonstrated commitment to and passion for creating a cancer-free world with the JEGS Foundation Award of Excellence. The 2020 award was presented to a group of individuals in recognition of their work in response to the COVID-19 pandemic — all faculty and staff of the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center, including the James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute.

The JEGS Foundation Award of Excellence is on display in the JEGS Foundation Lobby at The James.
