Founded in 1976, the Friends of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute have raised more than $59 million to fund powerful cancer research and patient care programs at Dana-Farber. We believe that philanthropy in the present makes future breakthroughs, cutting-edge treatment, and improved quality of care possible.

Friends Programs

We exemplify the Power of Friends through our dual mission: raising funds to support research, patient services, women's cancer programs, and oncology fellowships; and providing services that enhance Dana-Farber's healing environment, including gift bags for patients undergoing treatment, administration of our world-class art collection, non-denominational spiritual health programs, and programs to brighten the holidays for patients and families.
