Papa Gino’s and D’Angelo have partnered with the Jimmy Fund since 2009 to raise more than $818,000, and are striving to reach the $1 million mark this year. When customers give at the register, 100 percent of the contributions benefit cancer research and adult and pediatric patient care at Boston’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

“The Jimmy Fund is such an amazing cause, and one that we feel passionate about,” says Papa Gino’s and D’Angelo Chairman, Mark DeBlois. “With the generosity of our guests and enthusiasm of our team members, we are optimistic about surpassing the $1 million mark this year and look forward to reaching additional financial milestones to benefit the cause.”
