Donor Story

The one hundred honoree: Jason Phelps

by
Mass General Giving

To quote Jason Phelps, “Cancer picked the wrong guy and I am bringing my friends. We’re coming for you cancer ….” A cancer survivor, Jason, with his wife Margot and their friends and family, have raised more than $90,000 for cancer and educated hundreds, possibly thousands, about the disease.

Jason uses all his resources to raise awareness about cancer and to promote the fight against the disease. At the bottom of every email he sends, he includes the message, “Cancer Sucks, Fight Back! We are here, we are fighting and we will win. We must have HOPE!” He uses his blog about food, wine and beer to talk about cancer. He has participated in the Relay for Life and in the annual Making Strides Against Cancer one-day event in three different locations. He volunteers to help organize, set up, clean up and host cancer events. He has raised more than $90,000 for the American Cancer Society and the Lance Armstrong Foundation, in addition to supporting other cancer-fighting organizations.

Jason is enthusiastic about his cause and this enthusiasm inspires others in the fight against cancer.
