COMING TOGETHER TO DEFY CANCER

Jimmy Fund Golf presented by Mohegan Sun is the nation’s oldest and largest charity golf program. Since 1983, tournament organizers, participants, sponsors, and volunteers have taken a swing at cancer to fund groundbreaking research and compassionate patient care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Jimmy Fund Golf is made up of more than 140 golf events currently held in 10 states throughout the year with one goal: to Defy Cancer.

Jimmy Fund Golf events are run by families, companies, and other 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations who have formed their own golf fundraisers to support the lifesaving mission of Dana-Farber. Learn more about how our dedicated tournament organizers fundraise throughout the year in our 2023 From the Fairways: Year in Review.
