B+ Talks

Joe has been asked to speak at sports banquets,

graduations,

fund-raisers,

sports camps and games,

and to sports teams,

service organizations, and church groups.

Joe tailors his talks to his audience, but always includes the story of Andrew and the B+ Foundation, specifically how we can "Live Like Andrew" every day and the objectives of the B+ Foundation.

1. Keep the “B+” message alive and share the lessons Andrew taught us, including: have fun, have faith in God, keep our lives in perspective, appreciate our blessings, and make time for our loved ones.

2. Provide financial assistance for families of critically ill children.

3. Support the “Andrew McDonough Scholarship Fund” at Salesianum School where we currently have 5 scholarship recipients who have demonstrated financial need.

4. Sponsor research to find a cure for leukemia, related illnesses, and improved chemotherapy.

If you'd like to invite Joe to your event, you can contact him at Joe@LiveLikeAndrew.org.
