BOSTON, MA - Shawmut joined Pan-Mass Challenge founder Billy Starr and Boston Mayor Marty Walsh at the Pan-Mass Challenge Heavy Hitter Dinner on Friday, May 8, 2015 at the InterContinental Hotel.
Team Shawmut attended in support of the cancer research being conducted by teammate Dr. Christopher Sweeney of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The annual gathering honored individuals and teams who raised at least $7,200 per person for PMC last year. Speakers included Billy Starr and Governor Baker, as well as Mayor Walsh who announced his commitment to ride one of the PMC routes this year.
Team Shawmut has consistently raised more than $100,000 each year over the past three years to support Dr. Sweeney’s groundbreaking new areas of research into testicular, prostate, and lung cancers.
