Boston-based Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has received $50 million from the Yawkey Foundation to support the institute’s planned $1.7 billion cancer hospital, currently under construction.
A bridge connecting the new hospital and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s Yawkey Center for Cancer Care will be named in honor of donors Jean and Tom Yawkey. The bridge will connect Dana-Farber’s inpatient and outpatient facilities, according to a June 9 news release from the cancer institute.
Construction of the Yawkey Center for Cancer Care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute began in 2007 through a $30 million grant from the Yawkey Foundation.
