WHY WE'RE FUNDRAISING WITH THE JIMMY FUND WALK TO FIGHT CANCER
By participating in the 2023 Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk presented by Hyundai, our team is making every step count toward the ultimate finish line: a world without cancer.
This Walk is very important to us, as several members of our Team have beaten cancer thanks to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Our Team is called BRCA1 Strong because several of us (including siblings and children) have inherited the BRCA1 genetic mutation that makes us more susceptible to breast cancer (women and men) and ovarian cancer.
Your support goes directly to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s unique 50-50 balance between cutting-edge research and compassionate patient care. Funds raised through the Jimmy Fund Walk enable Dana-Farber leaders to enhance programs and initiatives that serve pediatric and adult patients and their families.
Thank you for supporting our team in the Jimmy Fund Walk. All together, in 2021 and 2022, our Team raised close to $30,000. Together this year, we can continue in the quest to defy cancer by raising the funds needed to support important research and world-class patient care!
