SPRINGFIELD — The Sullivan family presented a donation of $38,820.68 to Baystate Health’s D’Amour Center for Cancer Care in Springfield on Nov. 25. The funds represent the combined proceeds from the sixth annual Jessy’s Fight Golf Tournament, held at the Country Club of Wilbraham, and Cloud 9 Marketing Group’s 10-year anniversary fundraiser.

Since 2017, Jessy’s Fight has raised money to support patients and families affected by cancer throughout Western Mass. What began as a personal battle has grown into a major community effort driven by family, friends, local businesses, and supporters across the region.

Cancer affects every family in some way, and Jessy’s Fight was created by the Sullivan family to uplift those facing the unexpected challenges of treatment, recovery, and support. The family has chosen the week of Thanksgiving each year to present their annual donation. For them, this week represents gratitude, reflection, and the start of a holiday season focused on helping others.

This year’s golf tournament was originally rained out and forced to be rescheduled, yet every golfer, sponsor, and supporter returned on the rain date. According to the Sullivan family, the overwhelming participation demonstrated the strength of the mission and the dedication of the community behind it.

The donation was presented by John and Jessica Sullivan, their daughters, Willow and Autumn, and Dylan Pilon of Cloud 9 Marketing Group.

Jessy’s Fight hopes to bring joy and reassurance to those who feel lost and alone. Jessy has been cancer-free eight years and counting.
