Honouring Science at the 47th Annual ICRF Montreal Gala
This year, the ICRF Montreal Gala is dedicated to a cause that touches us all: the power of science.
Join us on June 6th as we celebrate the groundbreaking contributions of doctors, researchers, and supervising physicians whose work in ICRF-funded projects is transforming cancer care and research globally. Our 47th Annual Gala is a tribute to the enduring spirit of scientific inquiry that drives significant advancements in health outcomes, not just in Montreal and Israel, but around the world.
We invite you to be part of this crucial celebration. Your support will propel life-saving research forward, continuing to impact the lives of cancer patients globally. Together, let’s honour the power of science and the individuals dedicated to harnessing it for the greater good.

Voted one of the top 10 comedians in New York City by The Hollywood Reporter, Modi is one of the comedy circuit’s most sought after performers. Featured on HBO, CBS, NBC, ABC, Comedy Central, Howard Stern, and E! Entertainment, Modi has received rave reviews in The New York Times, Time Out NY and The New York Post.
Born in Tel Aviv, Israel, Modi emigrated with his family to the United States at the age of seven and was raised on Long Island. After graduating from Boston University, he worked as an investment banker until his first open-mic night made him realise that stand-up was his true calling. Equipped with a sharp wit and a knack for reading an audience, Modi has gone on to become a successful fixture in New York's vibrant comedy scene, often doing bits that incorporate his heritage, and he is a hit with diverse Jewish audiences as well as fans of all backgrounds and beliefs.
Now a regular performer at the New York and Los Angeles comedy clubs, Modi also headlines around the country and across the globe. He is a co-founder of The Chosen Comedy Festival, a celebration of Jewish humor that was launched in 2022. The festival features diverse comedy acts and has brought laughter to thousands of people in NYC, Miami, Los Angeles, and more.
Modi has played himself on HBO's Crashing and Netflix's When Jews Were Funny. He's also appeared in several feature films and played leading roles in two: Waiting for Woody Allen, which won the LA Film Festival, and Stand Up, a feature-length film. In 2018, Mayor Bill De Blasio declared June 26th 'Mordechi Modi Rosenfeld Day' in the city of New York for his accomplishments and contributions to the artistic community.
