Cancer ping. She died of a form of pediatric cancer diagnosed little more than a year ago. In the meantime, she raised over 1.4 million for pediatric cancer research.

Not really.

Are you old enough to remember the "Jimmy Fund"?

"Her nonprofit foundation helped to raise more than $1.5 million for cancer research."

Thanks for the ping, Xzins.

So sad for her and her family. Incredible young lady. Only 19 - but she lived her life as fully as possible.

“Are you old enough to remember the “Jimmy Fund”? “

The Jimmy Fund has been well known for years-—age has nothing to do with it.

Sadly if you ask a random cross section of people under age 30 what the Jimmy Fund is most would look confused and the rest would guess that it had something to do with lock picking. Maybe one would know what it was. That one would be either into history or medicine.
