In honor of the first anniversary of Farrah Fawcett’s death, a cancer-research foundation was dedicated in her name, Popeater.com is reporting. Her partner, Ryan O’Neal, his daughter Tatum and his son with Fawcett, Redmond, were part of a small gathering on June 25 at the offices of the Farrah Fawcett Foundation.

Alana Stewart said her friend started the foundation, which funds alternative cancer research and treatment methods, during her own struggle with cancer. The foundation is also designed to help improve the quality of life of those who are stricken with cancer.

“If I can carry on (Farrah’s) mission for the foundation, it’s an honor for me,” Stewart also said. She added that Fawcett felt she could help a lot of people, and started the foundation to give those stricken with the disease inspiration.
