Cantor Fitzgerald and our affiliates BGC Group and GFI Group commemorate our 658 friends and colleagues and 61 Eurobrokers employees who perished in the September 11, 2001, World Trade Center attacks by donating 100% of our global revenues on Charity Day to The Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund and hundreds of charities around the world. Charity Day, originally conceived as a way to raise money for The Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund to assist the families of Cantor employees who lost their lives on 9/11, has expanded to embrace charitable causes around the world. On Charity Day, participating charities bring celebrity “ambassadors” who join us on our trading floor to conduct trades over the phone with clients. Many distinguished guests have lent their support by joining us on this day, including prominent actors, musicians, sports icons, models, media personalities, royalty, and politicians. For additional information, please contact The Charity Day Team at CharityDay@cantor.com.

Cantor Fitzgerald is shocked by the horrors occurring in the Middle East. We stand with Israel and condemn the atrocities committed against it by Hamas. Never again is now.

Cantor Fitzgerald had the largest loss of life of any company on 9/11. The Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund was formed in the wake of 9/11 to help victims of terrorism. Hamas is terrorism and we are here to aid Israel.

The Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund is fundraising for urgently needed relief for the people of Israel. 100% of every dollar raised will be given to charities doing important work on the ground in Israel.

Help us help Israel by donating now. Our Cantor family is MATCHING EVERY DOLLAR.

“My friends who lived in New York during this time talked about Cantor Fitzgerald losing more people than anyone else. You have 658 lives lost, and every year you remember those losses with generosity and donations. As someone who is a huge proponent for the Scleroderma Research Foundation, the opportunity that Cantor Fitzgerald would support that, and many other charities today, is so impactful and incredibly generous.” – Regina Hall, Charity Day 2022
