Expect Miracles Foundation at Fenway Park 2024
To mark a triumphant year in fundraising, Expect Miracles Foundation (EMF) delivered a check to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at Fenway Park, right before the Boston Red Sox took the field on Tuesday, June 25. The presentation was displayed on the center field video screen.
The gift of $1 million, representing funds raised in 2023, will benefit the Robert and Renée Belfer Center for Applied Cancer Science at Dana-Farber. Expect Miracles Foundation has provided over $14 million in grants to Dana-Farber over the past 30 years.
Support from the Foundation helps advance groundbreaking research at the Belfer Center, whose mission is the improvement of patient outcomes by discovering and advancing more efficacious cancer therapies. As part of Dana-Farber, the Center advances the mission of reducing the burden of cancer locally and around the world.
