2nd Annual
TWO NIGHTS, TWO CITIES: ONE GREAT CAUSE!
A gathering of sports business professionals and friends in
Boston and NYC.
NSMN invites you and your colleagues to join us for a special
evening of networking, cocktails, music and a silent auction
to again help raise funds and support the Jack Lynch Fund
- to cover family treatment expenses for Jack Lynch and the
Children's Floating Hospital in Boston where he is being treated.
Your donations will also go to assist other families battling
the same childhood cancers that the Lynch family has met during
their journey.
Last year, the sports business community raised more than
$60,000 in 4 hours by participating in these 2 fundraisers.
This year, our goal is $100,000.
ABOUT THE LYNCH FAMILY:
Many of you know the Lynch family - Ed, Dianne, little Jack
and newborn Aidan. Dianne and Ed are sports industry veterans:
Dianne spent the last 7 years working with Major League Soccer
as Vice President of Special Events and started her career
in sports with the New England Patriots and Revolution. Ed
has spent time at Pro Serv, MLBPA and Sports Illustrated.
He is now based in Boston as a partner of All Access Sports
and Event Marketing and a board member of NSMN's Boston Chapter.
ABOUT JACK:
In October 2003, two-year-old Jack was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma
cancer - a rare childhood cancer. He has been enduring chemo
and other treatments ever since. Jack has demonstrated how
strong and resilient kids can be, and he has given the family
the strength to get through this terrible time. During this
whole process, the Lynch Family has realized what so many
other families realize when faced with medical bills. Even
the best insurance policies don't cover all of the expenses
that you encounter when treating cancer. We hope to raise
money to cover their out-of-pocket hospital and treatment
costs. In addition, we want to raise money for other families
battling cancer, and help the phenomenal staff and facility
at the Children's Floating Cancer Center. Go to www.jacklynchfund.com
for more info on Jack, his condition and progress.
