The Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk

Jimmy Fund walkers explain who they Walk for in this 7 News/WHDH TV commercial.

The Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk is the largest participatory event benefiting the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. It is the only event, other than the Boston Marathon® itself, sanctioned to travel along the famed 26.2-mile route from Hopkinton, Mass., to Boston. Since its inauguration in 1989, the Walk has raised more than $60 million for research and care to support patients with all forms of cancer. In 2009, the event drew more than 7,700 walkers hailing from 34 states and 5 countries. We are looking forward to walking with you and making 2010 a stellar year.
