Tired of all the bad news coming out of the mutual fund industry? Every day, it seems, if it's not market timing, it's improper gift giving.
So here's something heartwarming.
The Mutual Funds Against Cancer golf tournament, held on June 2 at the Pinehills Golf Club at Plymouth, raised $210,000 for cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and its Jimmy Fund Clinic.
Of that, $45,000 came from a silent auction, which included two autographed Red Sox World Series jerseys, sold for $3,000 each, and a pair of tickets to see the Rolling Stones at Fenway for $1,700.
