Honoring the
Russo Family

For nearly 20 years, Team Russo has stood as a living tribute to courage, unity, and the relentless pursuit of a cure. What began as a way to honor Robert Russo Jr. during his battle with cancer became a movement—led with heart and determination by Bob Russo. Through every fundraiser, and every message shared, Bob rallied us around the mission of supporting Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and The Jimmy Fund.

In 2023, Bob also faced his own cancer diagnosis. With unwavering grace, he continued to lead Team Russo until his passing on October 13, 2025. His legacy is not just in what he built—but in how he inspired us to keep building.

Today, Team Russo carries forward the mission with love, strength, and purpose—because that’s what Bob and Robert taught us: to never stop fighting, and to never walk alone.

Why We Fight

Cancer touches nearly every family. But research is turning hope into progress—one discovery, one treatment, and one survivor at a time.

Your donation helps Dana-Farber push forward toward better treatments, longer lives, and someday—cures.

Don’t forget: Many employers match charitable gifts, doubling your impact.
