Together, the Tom Coughlin Jay Fund and Wolfson Children’s Hospital are helping families tackle childhood cancer. The Jay Fund helps children like Shane and their families focus on their fight against childhood cancer by taking away some of the burdens that come with the diagnosis. From paying household bills to financial planning, from making a child’s life brighter through playing games in Evan’s Teen Room at Wolfson Children’s Hospital to organizing special visits, the Jay Fund is there for our patients and their families.
