The B+ Foundation provides desperately needed services to the victims of childhood cancer and is taking great strides in funding research into the cure for childhood cancer, the number #1 killer disease of children under the age of 19.

Unless you have been through the experience of childhood cancer, you can not imagine it. I lost my 14 year old son, AJ, to childhood cancer.

As a fellow childhood cancer advocate I work closely with Joe McDonough from B+ and can emphatically state that his head and heart are both entirely focused on making a dramatic difference for children and families enduring this incredibly rough road.

Please support the B+ Foundation and it helps children and families battling childhood cancer.

I met Joe McDonough at the beginning of 2011. I was impressed by his devotion and dedication to helping fight kids cancer. His compassion and empathy for families going through an unimaginably difficult and life-changing experience is genuine. In a few short years, the B+ Foundation has done good work to heighten public awareness of childhood cancer and been a leader to help educate, raise funds and work towards better treatment and funding and hopefully one day eradicating this disease.

The B+ Foundation is a great organization! I'm wasn't a huge soccer fan but I am now thanks to Andrew. His story touched me through my boyfriend who played soccer against Andrew. Following Andrews death I got the chance to meet his father at a Student Government meeting and really became interested in this foundation and helped promote it to my family, friends, and people who just asked about his t-shirts I was wearing. I went to Florida and had people ask me about my t-shirt and I was surely happy to tell Andrew's story. Not only does the B+ Foundation have a great meaning behind their logo, but they have helped so many cancer children and their families! I highly suggest getting to know this foundation and becoming a part of the fun!!
