Caroline Kaufer (née Lipson) (August 4, 1962 – March 22, 2005) was an executive of a software development company and a philanthropist, especially for research into neuroendocrine cancer, the disease from which she died. Before her death, Mrs. Kaufer and her husband Stephen Kaufer gave $1.05 million to the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute to fund research of this rare disease.[1] They also donated $250,000 to the Massachusetts General Hospital for similar research.[2] The Stephen and Caroline Kaufer Fund for Neuroendocrine Research continues to support medical research around the world.
Kaufer was a graduate of Newton South High School (class of 1980), Harvard College (class of 1984) and Harvard Business School (class of 1988).[2] She was head of Centerline Development Systems, based in Newton. Her husband managed and was co-founder of TripAdvisor. The money that they donated has been used for research at, among other places, Dana–Farber Cancer Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital and Stanford University.
