Cool Off for a Cause
July 13 @ 8:00 am - July 24 @ 5:00 pm
Same great cause. New name. Cooler than ever.
We’re excited to announce that FMC Ice Sports is once again partnering with The Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute for our annual summer fundraising event—now with a brand-new name!
Formerly known as Sun Safety Skate & Donate, our 7th Annual Cool Off for a Cause will take place July 13–24, 2026 (weekdays only) at participating FMC rinks across Massachusetts.
This two-week community event offers free public skating sessions while raising funds to support the life-changing work of The Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. FMC Ice Sports is proud to donate nearly 150 hours of public skating time to benefit this important cause.
Cancer has touched all of our lives in some way, and together we can make a difference. When you participate or make a donation, you’re helping support Dana-Farber’s unique commitment to both groundbreaking cancer research and compassionate patient care for children, adults, and their families.
Public skating is free and open to everyone. We encourage a suggested donation equivalent to the regular admission fee—or any amount you’re comfortable giving—to support The Jimmy Fund.
