Sully’s Brand Writes Large Check to Help Strike Out Cancer
Posted by on
Sully’s is involved in multiple charitable endeavors, but our most important yearly charitable contribution might be made to the Jimmy Fund during WEEI’s and NESN’s Telethon (August 19 and 20). Normally we just make a pledge and drop our check in the mail, but this season we thought it might be fun to try something different. We had a LARGE Sully’s check made up and Chris presented it in person to Jimmy Fund representatives at Fenway (along with a normal sized check too!).
When I was a kid my father and I usually sat in section twenty-seven behind home plate. We would enter the park through the Van Ness Street entrance and walk up the ramp to the third base grandstand. Back in those days the hallway was mostly empty except for a small Jimmy Fund donation box. My father made sure we made a donation on the way into every game without exception. I rarely sit in the grandstand these days, but I hope the box is still there.

We know times are tough, but every donation no matter how small can make a difference. Please consider making a donation today.
