Emotional Support: Host special events and activities for patients, families and caregivers to help ease stress, make fun family memories and take a break from the grueling routine of cancer treatment.
Practical Support: Support treatment facilities to improve the quality of life for the patient and their families.
How Your Support Makes a Difference
The Tom Coughlin Jay Fund Foundation is named for Jay McGillis, who was diagnosed with leukemia while playing football under Coach Coughlin at Boston College. Coach admired the red-headed strong side safety for his incredible work ethic and intense play.
In the eight months between Jay’s diagnosis and the day he lost his battle with cancer, the Coughlin family saw firsthand the physical, emotional and financial strains the illness caused Jay’s family. Coach Coughlin vowed that if he ever had the chance, he would create a way to help families with children battling cancer.
Thank you for your support!
We hope you will consider supporting our individual riders or our Jay Fund team as a whole.
Gifts of any size allow the Jay Fund to #BeThere for families facing the unthinkable so they can be there for their sick child.
