Franklin Residents to Participate in the 38th Annual Jimmy Fund Walk for Dana-Farber Presented by Hyundai

46 residents from Franklin will participate in the 2026 Jimmy Fund Walk for Dana-Farber presented by Hyundai on Sunday, October 4.

 

Debra Honor, Colleen Devereaux, and John Moore, along with dozens of other Franklin residents and thousands of other walkers, will participate in the annual event that will unite the community to raise funds to support all forms of adult and pediatric care and research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Last year marked a historic milestone, with the Walk raising more than $11.2 million for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and setting the stage for an even greater impact in 2026.

 

“Each year, the Walk brings our community together in a powerful way, with people of all ages supporting Dana-Farber’s groundbreaking research and patient care,” said Jessica Abbott, assistant vice president of the Jimmy Fund. “For more than three decades, this event has been a celebration of hope, where every step helps fuel breakthroughs, support patients, and inspire progress.”

 

Together Against Cancer

 

The Jimmy Fund Walk for Dana-Farber takes place along the famed Boston Marathon^® course. Participants have the flexibility to choose from four distance options ranging from a 5K to a full marathon. Walkers can also participate virtually at a time and location that works for them.

 

Whatever route participants choose, they will be supported by hundreds of volunteers and treated to refueling stations with refreshments throughout the course. Walkers will be motivated by posters of Heroes, the Walk's adult and pediatric patient partners, that appear along the course as inspiration. All routes will conclude at the Jimmy Fund Walk for Dana-Farber Finish Line sponsored by Schneider Electric at Boston Common, by the corner of Charles and Beacon Street. Finish line activities will include a celebration with food, entertainment, and more.

 

To register for the Walk or to support a walker, visit JimmyFund.org/Walk or call 866-531-9255. Registrants can enter the promo code NEWS for $5 off the registration fee. All registered walkers will receive a bib, medal, and a Walk T-shirt. You can also sign up to volunteer on Walk Day.

Ben Speaks Launch Party scheduled for Friday, September 18

Help Ben Speaks celebrate two exciting new beginnings.

Launching Ben Speaks into colleges through Ben's Challenge, an innovative wellness initiative designed to empower students with practical tools for emotional well-being, resilience, and intentional living.

The Evening Includes:

• Stand-up comedy with Maya Manion

• An intimate Living Room Conversation with Maya and the audience

• Live music and dancing with The Zajac Brothers Band

• Community, connection, and inspiration

Comedian Maya Manion

Is courageously transforming unimaginable loss into hope through laughter, honesty, and connection after losing both her son and her father to suicide. Maya Manion has been doing stand up comedy in New England, since 2008. Maya’s father died by suicide in 2020 and her son, in 2024.  Maya created “Just Bad Days”, an inspiring, funny, tragic and beautiful tribute to her beloved father and son. Hopefully, through talking about mental illness, there will be less suicides and more, “Just Bad Days”. 

The Zajac Brothers Band

The Zajac Brothers Band features songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Tyler Zajac as the voice of the band, along with his brother Matthew Zajac on drums. Together, they collaborate on writing, recording and performing their original music with a versatile group of additional instrumentalists to achieve their modern vintage sound. 

Often paying tribute to their favorite acts of the past, the brothers also enjoy putting their own twist on familiar classics. Expect to hear some old school songs from 50’s, 60’s and 70’s honoring the birth of Rock and Roll.

Spier Family Issues Giving Challenge at Hockomock Area YMCA

Greg and Kathy Spier of Foxborough are issuing a $25,000 challenge grant to support the Hockomock Area YMCA’s Food Access program, a part of the Y’s annual Reach Out Campaign. The Spiers and the Spier Family Foundation will match every donation made September 12 - 19 up to $25,000. 

As a non-profit organization, the Hockomock Area YMCA exists to help people be healthier, more confident and connected to each other and their communities. The Y is guided every day to remain focused on how best to respond to the emerging needs of its communities as individuals and families face financial struggles. 

In 2025, $3.9 million was invested by the Hockomock Area YMCA to ensure that everyone has the chance to thrive by providing scholarships to people in need in the Y’s 16 town service area to experience YMCA programs and services regardless of ability to pay. Since 2016, the Hockomock Y has been addressing hunger, providing over 152,000 bags of food to neighbors in need through the Y’s weekly food access and food pantry programs as well as served over 608,000 meals to children and families.  

Since May 2026, the Y is proudly operating Lenore’s Pantry & Market, located at its new home on Elm Street in North Attleboro, which has given neighbors facing food insecurity more choices, a welcoming place to shop, and an experience rooted in dignity. 

“Our Y is proud to operate this important resource for our community – Lenore’s Pantry & Market - as part of our Food Access program,” said Jim Downs, CEO of the Hockomock Area YMCA. “We are fortunate to be surrounded by caring people who are committed to strengthening the quality of life in our communities. Through partnerships and the generosity of donors who support our annual Reach Out Campaign, we’re able to fulfill our mission and be there for our neighbors when they need us most. This vital work is only possible because of the incredible philanthropic support of our community.”

“Greg and Kathy Spier have been passionate, steadfast supporters of our YMCA and their generous challenge will help ensure that we continue to be here for our neighbors,” added Downs.   

The Spier family’s impact on our local communities runs deep.  Their legacy at the Hockomock YMCA includes the naming of the indoor and outdoor aquatics centers as well as the splash park at the Y’s Invensys Foxboro Branch, along with Greg and Kathy’s parents, Sonja and the late Alex Spier. 

Greg Spier shares, “One of my mentors is the late Don Rodman.  Don taught me the importance of being philanthropic. He always said how important it was to be philanthropic in the areas where we work and the areas where we live. What better place to be philanthropic in the area than at the Hockomock Area YMCA. The Y benefits thousands of children and families and we’re so proud to be a part of it.”  

“The Y is a fellowship that brings people together and provides joy to so many people,” says Kathy Spier.  “As our father Alex always said, we want to leave the world a better place and that’s what we are going to do.  Please make a gift to the Hockomock Y between September 12 and 19 and we will proudly match it as part of this giving challenge.” 

“Thank you in advance from the bottom of our hearts for making a gift and for your generous support,” says Greg Spier.

Every gift matters. To learn more about this challenge and ways to make a gift, visit www.hockymca.org/spier-challenge 

To learn about other ways to support this initiative, please contact Katie Fisher at katie@hockymca.org.
