Tues. Feb. 14th
This morning, I was truly blessed to spend time with B+ Hero, Declan Roberts and his parents. As you’ll see in the picture, B+ racecar driver, Hugh Plumb, and I visited Declan at A.I. duPont Hospital in Wilmington, DE. Declan is such a cool kid. He is so brave and funny and has an amazing personality…and he’s only 4. He told us about his recent trip to Give Kids The World in FL and he enjoyed a vanilla milkshake and cereal (“milky Os”…you might know them as Cheerios 🙂 while we were there (shout out and thanks to Charcoal Pit for opening an hour early for us so that we could deliver Declan his favorite shake!). I presented Declan with his very own “B+ Hero Medal” because he truly is a HERO. He seemed to like it. You’re an amazing young man, Declan.
PLEASE stop by and offer encouraging words and prayers for Declan, his parents, and two younger brothers.

We need your help! For those of you who aren’t aware, there is a tremendous national shortage of Methotrexate, a chemo drug to treat ALL (leukemia) and other things. Many of you have asked ‘What can we do?”. Thanks to a lot of collaboration between childhood cancer organizations and the community of oncologists, there is now a plan. Please read a summary of the plan as listed on People Against Childhood Cancer’s website (PAC2).

Calling all B+ Runners from all over the country (or world for that matter)!!!
In the coming weeks, we are going to provide you details on our newest program – The B+ Roadrunners Club.
We know a lot of you are runners, so similar to other charities, we’re going to combine your passion for running with running for a great cause.
Keep your calendars open for a great event in Sept (half marathon or full marathon, your choice). We selected this event because it’s a cool destination and race is very highly-regarded.
So, spread the word, start training, and stay tuned for more information!
