Champions for Children’s is the one night where Boston sports stars team up with business leaders for an evening of fun and fundraising, all to support lifesaving patient care and groundbreaking research at Boston Children’s.

Ever since he was a rookie, he's never missed a hospital visit. Whether visiting with the Boston Celtics or on his own, Jayson has made personal connections with our patients and been a wonderful role model we can all look up to. Congratulations, Jayson, and thanks for changing the game for kids! 🏀
