Holiday Backpacks
Sponsor a backpack for a child now!
This year our goal is to fill 200 string backpacks for teens undergoing cancer treatment throughout the holiday season. Help us bring a SMILE to these kids and brighten their day! If you're out shopping and can pick up some fun items for teens, we'd love to add them to our bags. Items needed by Nov 19th.

AYJ Fund Wine, Craft Beer & Chocolate Tasting - Thanks!
Thanks to everyone who helped make both our Brighton and North Adams events so successful! We had a wonderful time and were so happy that so many of our friends came out to join us. We loved having so many who joined us for the first time along with so many great long time supporters. We loved hearing from Dr Mimi Bandopadhayay in Brighton of Dana-Farber who shared how important family foundations like the AYJ Fund are to continuing the work in the lab.
