An Amazing Day at Fenway: Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon

It was a day I will never forget!  Yesterday, I had the amazing opportunity to participate in the Jimmy Fund’s Radio-Telethon at Fenway to help raise money to strike out cancer at Dana Farber as well as raise awareness for the importance of supportive care services like Dana Farber’s Young Adult Program.  Over the two days, the telethon raised over $3.3 million, and to have been a small part of that was a true honor.  Thanks to all of the incredible staff from Dana Farber/Jimmy Fund and WEEI/NESN who made all of this possible!  And most importantly, thanks to everyone who donated to help find better treatments and a cure for cancer.

Here are some photos of the day as well as a link to the first interview on WEEI before the game.  Stay tuned for the link to my conversation with Don Orsillo and Jerry Remy during the Sox game on NESN.
