In January 2004 Gaber was invited by Professor Matty Roca to exhibit his art work in México. Gaber accepted the invitation to exhibit and used this seven(7) month art exhibition tour as an opportunity to fundraise in support of breast cancer research to help the patients with breast cancer of the State of Quintana Roo, México.
