About the Jimmy V Classic
Named after the legendary college basketball coach Jim Valvano, the Jimmy V Classic has been raising money and awareness for the V Foundation for Cancer Research since its inception. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the classic, with it being held for the 21st time at Madison Square Garden. ESPN’s V Week initiative, which aims to educate sports fans about the importance of cancer research, has been instrumental in raising over $236 million for the V Foundation since 1993. Over the past 17 years, ESPN’s annual V Week has contributed nearly $89 million towards this cause.
About the V Foundation for Cancer Research
