The Jimmy Fund Walk is an incredible fundraising opportunity for our pediatric palliative care team (PACT), as well as for the patients and their families our team serves. Funds raised go to support the PACT Quality of Life Fund which provides life enhancing opportunities for PACT patients and their families. It would be hard to share a comprehensive list of all the ways these funds go to support patients and their families, a few specifics include our robust bereavement program, quality of life items including gift cards to Starbucks, Target, VISA, Stop & Shop, patient/family experiences (outings / memory making), and home-necessities (fridge, air conditioner, mattress pad, fan, weighted blanket).
By participating in the 2024 Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk presented by Hyundai, our team is making every step count toward improving the quality of life for patients with severe illness.
Your support goes directly to PACT's quality of life fund.
