75 Years of the Jimmy Fund

2023 marks 75 years of progress and impact made possible by the Jimmy Fund. Since the original “Jimmy” inspired thousands of donations through a radio broadcast at his hospital bedside on May 22, 1948, the generosity of millions has helped the Jimmy Fund directly support Dana-Farber’s mission. Join us as we celebrate the power of 75 years of community through activities and events throughout the year—including CowParade New England. Together, we’re all Jimmy, and we can defy cancer.
