The Jimmy Fund, an official charity of the Boston Red Sox, supports the fight against cancer at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, helping to raise the chances of survival for children and adults with cancer around the world. Since its founding in 1948, the Jimmy Fund has raised millions of dollars through thousands of community efforts to advance Dana-Farber's lifesaving mission. Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, with support from the Jimmy Fund, provides expert, compassionate care to children and adults and is home to groundbreaking cancer discoveries. A D'Angelo executive will make the D'Angelo Grilled Sandwiches donation during the WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund telethon airing on August 19 and 20.

"D'Angelo is proud of its partnership with the Red Sox, WEEI and NESN and values the support these organizations have given the Jimmy Fund," said Rick Wolf, president and CEO of Papa Gino's, Inc., parent company of D'Angelo Grilled Sandwiches. "The Jimmy Fund provides hope and vital services through Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. We were pleased to contribute more than $95,000 last year and hope to increase our donation this year to support these services and help battle cancer."

D'Angelo Grilled Sandwiches is the official sandwich of the Red Sox. For the second season D'Angelo launched the Lobster Nation campaign and sponsored the highly popular Catch of the Day on NESN. The Catch of the Day features the best and most entertaining catches by fans in the stands and ties in with D'Angelo's popular Lobster line. D'Angelo's Lobster Sandwich line, available from April through October, is sold at D'Angelo's throughout New England, and its Lobster Roll is now available at Fenway Park. D'Angelo's Lobster Nation Lineup includes D'Angelo's Traditional Lobster Sandwich, Baked Stuffed Lobster and Lobster Roll.
