Trot Nixon helping raise money for the Jimmy Fund

Red Sox right fielder Trot Nixon wants to visit your workplace.

Yes, you heard that right. Nixon has joined forces with the Jimmy Fund, which supports the fight against cancer at Boston’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

Nixon plans to visit the workplace that raises the most money today for the Jimmy Fund, which has created “Rally Against Cancer Day” in honor of the Sox opener and to help fight cancer.

Organizers have asked businesses throughout New England to encourage their employees to wear Red Sox apparel to work and contribute $5 to the Jimmy Fund to participate in the effort.

The Jimmy Fund wants all donations to be made online.
