Thousands to turn out for the 37th annual Jimmy Fund Walk

BOSTON — Thousands of people are expected to turn out and participate in the 37th annual Jimmy Fund Walk.

The iconic fundraising walk is for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to support all forms of cancer research and patient care

Since 1989, the Jimmy Fund Walk has raised more than $185 million for adult and pediatric cancer care and research at Dana-Farber.

There are four distance options along the Boston Marathon course that walkers can walk:

• 5K from Dana-Farber’s Longwood campus (Boston, MA).
• 10K from the Boston College law campus (Newton, MA).
• Half-marathon from Wellesley High School (Wellesley, MA).
• Marathon from Hopkinton Middle School (Hopkinton, MA).

Boston 25 is a proud sponsor of the Jimmy Fund walk, and many members of our team will be participating and supporting the walkers.
