Tues. Aug. 6th
Featured Family of the Week
I’d like you to meet 2 year old, Brody. He looks like a really healthy little guy, doesn’t he? Brody was diagnosed with leukemia the day after Mother’s Day this year. Please read a passage of a thank-you note from Brody’s family to YOU.
“We continue to focus on all of the blessings in our lives which include our family, friends, and even those we may never meet who have taken the time to offer their support. B+ Foundation has been an example of this type of blessing. Your grant has enabled us to pay for more than half of his anesthesia for all of his lumbar punctures with intrathecal chemo between 5/11/13 to 6/24/13. This lifts some of the financial burden so that we can focus on our little man. You have impacted our lives and will continue to impact the lives of others through this organization. We are forever grateful and are inspired by these acts of kindness and generosity.” Brody’s Mom

Rebel Runners Raise Money with the Crabowitz 5k
The Rebel Runners of New Castle County, DE recently held their annual “Crabowitz 5k”. What’s a “Crabowitz 5k”? Sort of a healthy excuse for a party. Some in the group ran a 5k and everyone gathered back to the Syzmanski home for a huge crab and beer feast. Donations were accepted and the Rebel Runners presented us with $1,500. Creative – and fun – fundraising that is very much appreciated! Thanks, Rebel Runners.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And, don’t forget to sign up for our B+ Dinner & Auction on Sept 23rd. You can join us for the whole day (which includes golf) or just the dinner and auction. It will be a great time. Get a group together — a table of 10 for dinner is only $600. Click here for more information.
