On Sunday September 21, 2008 members of Team Jillies joined 9,000 other walkers in the 13.1 mile Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk from Wellesley, MA to Copley Square in Boston. The 2008 Walk marked the 20th year of this historic event which raises money to support research and care for all forms of cancer. Since 1989, the Walk has raised more than $51 million for the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The goal for this year's Walk is $7.2 million.
Team Jillies was comprised of new walkers and those who have participated in the walk for the past 13 years. If you would like to make a general gift to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and The Jimmy Fund,
