APRIL 2026
Our mission is to help families tackle childhood cancer by providing financial, emotional and practical support. From diagnosis to recovery and beyond, we are part of the team, allowing parents to focus on their child’s well-being. Our goal is to BE THERE for parents facing the unthinkable so they can BE THERE for their families.
COACH’S CORNER Dear Friends, We started the year off strong with our annual Wine Tasting Gala that raised more than $340,000 to support families tackling childhood cancer. It was a terrific evening. Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered, and contributed to making the event such a success. Your generosity and commitment to the Jay Fund continue to make a real difference for the families we serve. For over three decades, the Jay Fund has been about teamwork. When a family is facing a pediatric cancer diagnosis, they’re in the toughest fight of their lives, and our mission is simple: make sure they never have to face it alone. Because of supporters like you, we are able to stand beside them every step of the way. There’s also more to come this spring. In April, we’ll be making a special announcement about some new additions to the organization, so stay tuned! We’re excited to share what’s ahead. And in May, we’ll gather once again for our Celebrity Golf Classic, where we will begin celebrating the 31st anniversary of the Jay Fund. Our namesake Jay McGillis wore #31 while playing football under me at Boston College, so this anniversary celebration is a tribute to Jay and his legacy, as well as a commitment to ongoing growth for our foundation. The Celebrity Golf Classic is always a great couple of days with great people, all coming together to support a cause that truly matters.
