So far, they've raised over 3 million, but the more the merrier.

For those not in the know, the Jimmy Fund raises money for cancer research. Who can say no to cancer research?

The Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon goes on during the Red Sox games and beyond.

"Jimmy" was actually a man named Einar Gustafson from - where else ?- Maine. He was on a radio show called "Truth or Consequences" and, as a young cancer patient, Einar AKA Jimmy's story helped raised $200,000 for Dr. Dana Farber's cancer institute. (Full story here.)

Did you know that this year, someone from every state pledged to the Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon?

Come on, man. Everybody's doing it.

The Jimmy Fund and the Dana Farber Institute have strong affiliation with the Red Sox.

Especially this year, as Red Sox pitcher Jon Lester just returned to the pitcher's mound after a year long winning battle against lymphoma.

And especially this year because of Big Jim - AKA Dad -, who is home from the hospital today after a successful surgery to install a pump inside that will release pain medication.
