Social Responsibility- The Boston Red Sox 


The Red Sox Foundation

The Red Sox Foundation is committed to improving the lives of children and adults across the New England area. The Foundation's efforts are primarily focused on improving health, educational and recreational opportunities, as well as social service programs in urban neighborhoods. For example, in  September 2009, the Red Sox Foundation launched a major new program to serve New England based veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with Traumatic Brain Injury and Post Traumatic Stress and their families. 


John Hancock Fenway Fantasy Day 

Since 1953, the Red Sox and the Jimmy Fund have been a team, working in support of cancer research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. During this fun filled day, patients at the Jimmy Fund will be able to pitch. hit, and run the bases at Fenway,and feel like they are a member of the team. Volunteers and sponsors can join a team and help fund raise the event. Last year at the event they raised over $220,000 to support cancer research at the Dana Farber institute.
