I’ve always worried that one of these years I’m going to climb the stairs to Jake Kennedy’s physical therapy clinic in Downtown Crossing, which doubles as the headquarters for Christmas in the City, and be met by a public relations consultant who informs me: “Jake’s not taking questions today. He’s lunching with his fund-raising team.”
Suffice it to say, this is not that year. Next year won’t be either. Nor any year. No, when I walked into Kennedy Brothers one afternoon last week, Jake was where he always is, standing amid a sea of ailing patients stretched out on exam beds, twisting shoulders and flexing knees.

Dentists and flu shots...what a brilliant way to reach this needy group! Cheers!
Brian didn't mention that you can also donate at any Kennedy Brothers branch in the Boston area, making it easier for us suburbanites. This includes branches in Braintree, Watertown, Needham and Cohasset. So no excuses!
Well done once again, Brian, for reminding us of this amazing initiative.
Thanks for helping me get into the Christmas spirit!!!
