100% of the proceeds from this year's Cross Check Cancer Women's Tournament will go Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Adult Survivorship Program. Part of the Perini Family Survivors’ Center, the program serves patients treated for cancer as an adult (age 21 or older) to find expertise, education, and support to help manage issues related to surviving cancer. This includes managing the risk of second cancers, understanding the long-term effects of treatment, and addressing social, physical, or psychological concerns.
