Movie lovers needed to help conquer cancer with the Jimmy Fund

From June 7-July 25 The Jimmy Fund/Variety Children’s Charities Theatre Collections is looking for movie lovers with big hearts and a few spare hours to help benefit cancer care and research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. Volunteers are needed to pass the canisters after the Jimmy Fund trailer runs during movie previews on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays at participating National Amusements and other independent movie theaters in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, and Vermont. Volunteers receive T-shirts and possible other gifts like movie tickets, upcycled bags, or Red Sox tickets, depending on the time they commit to the program. To sign up go to www.jimmyfund.org/theatre or contact Catie Hsieh at catherine_hsieh@dfci.harvard.edu or 617-582-7724.
