All across the country, colleges, student organizations, clubs, sports teams, fraternities, and sororities are getting into the B+ spirit. These students organize, fundraise, and inspire as they raise money for The B+ Foundation to help the 46 kids each school day who are diagnosed with cancer. We are the beneficiary of events nationwide! From The University of Washington on Seattle to NYU in New York City and everyone in-between! UDance, the dance marathon at The University of Delaware is now the 5th largest in the nation!

We’d like to partner with colleges and universities to create a successful, sustainable, philanthropy event on your campus by leveraging our mutual strengths. With our proven success in event marketing, our first-hand knowledge of children fighting cancer, and your local volunteer resources, we can help you create a fundraiser that everyone can be proud of — and help fight childhood cancer.

Already Have an Event?

If you have an existing event that you want to grow, The B+ Foundation will give you the attention and involvement you’re looking for from your charitable partner. We offer our years of experience and full support to make your event as successful as it can be, and we’re prepared to work with you throughout the year.

Your donations really add up. They enable us to write checks to buy gas for hospital visits hours away, or to buy medicine that insurance won’t cover.

The Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation relies on the help of thousands of supporters like you nationwide. Through your generous contributions of Time, Talent, and Treasure, we have been able to provide financial and emotional assistance to thousands of families of children with cancer in every state. And we’ve provided research grants to support cutting-edge childhood cancer research in world-class institutions including Seattle Children’s Hospital, Dana-Farber/Harvard Medical Center, Nemours Center for Childhood Cancer Research, and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Support or Attend Events that Benefit B+

We rely on participants, sponsors, and volunteers to keep our events growing year after year. Check our list of events as it’s updated often. Many of our supporters organize their own events or dedicate the proceeds of events to B+. Contact us if you’re interested in hosting an event to benefit B+.

Join the B+ Junior Board

In the spring of 2012, a group of elementary school friends set up a corner stand to sell baked goods the weekend of the Flower Market in Wilmington, DE. They decided that all proceeds would go to The B+ Foundation because they “fell in love” with the foundation and the whole idea of making life a bit easier for kids and families in treatment.

Four years later, they are still just kids who support The B+ Foundation every spring, but now they’ve committed to do more.  The creation of The B+ Junior Board is a shining example of Kids Helping Kids Fight Cancer.  Their first event is a family New Year’s Eve party, and it’s being developed, promoted, and run by kids. Their goal is to have more than 200 guests (students and parents) to increase awareness, raise money for B+, and have their event become a blueprint to inspire kids across the country to host events in their communities.
