Mr. Zegarek is the Director of Risk Transfer for HUB International, a leading insurance brokerage and risk management firm. He\u2019s also a cancer survivor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy fear when I was diagnosed was that I was going to come out of surgery having aged 20 years. For me, that didn\u2019t happen. Ultimately, my experience with cancer helped me to have more wisdom and empathy with others. I\u2019m more patient with people now and more aware that people have all kinds of stuff going on in their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cancerhopenetwork.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ziggy.png?resize=642%2C642&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4909\" width=\"642\" height=\"642\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>That awareness led Mr. Zegarek to look for new ways to contribute to his community. It\u2019s made him a strong advocate of testing, more willing to start difficult conversations with friends and colleagues. \u201cIf you have issues, don\u2019t let embarrassment get in the way.\u201d It also led him to Cancer Hope Network.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI saw firsthand the impact of caring support when I was going through treatment,\u201d he recalled. \u201cThe Cancer Hope Network mission is both meaningful and personal. I\u2019m honored to serve with an organization where I can have a significant impact.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cZiggy brings a wonderful combination of heart and expertise to his service as a trustee,\u201d said Executive Director Cynthia Gutierrez Bernstein. \u201cHis thoughtful commitment to helping the organization grow to serve even more cancer patients and caregivers is deeply appreciated. His firsthand knowledge of the challenges cancer brings makes him an extraordinary champion of peer support.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cancerhopenetwork.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Robert-Zegarek-5-e1615566812442-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C601&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Ziggy Zegarek and family\" class=\"wp-image-4910\" width=\"800\" height=\"601\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To schedule an interview with Mr. Zegarek or to learn more about Cancer Hope Network, contact Beth Blakey, Executive Director &#8211; bblakey@cancerhopenetwork.org.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">###<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Cancer Hope Network<\/strong><br>Cancer Hope Network provides free one-on-one peer support to adult cancer patients and their loved ones.
