My Nonprofit Reviews

B the Difference was borne out of the loss of Brandon Merritt by his two sisters. I have been blessed to be friends with the Merritt family for almost twenty years and knew Brandon. He was a gentle and beautiful soul who suffered from this terrible disease. Most people don't know what it is and how devastating it is to its victims and their families. The Merritt family found a way to bring joy to others through their pain. This is a loving, personal charity that is overseen by friends and family of Brandon Merritt. This alone makes it a special charity. You can feel their genuine love and compassion for all who suffer with NF. I've been attending their annual fundraising event and in 2019, I volunteered to be a guide for a family recipient of one of the B the Difference trips. I spent 5 beautiful days in Colorado with the Rutter family. Everything was 100% paid for by the foundation and it was the perfect place for the family to forget about the surgeries and doctor's appointments. We laughed and enjoyed a glorious vacation in spectacular Colorado. Thanks to this foundation, the Rutter family received a trip of a lifetime. Thank you to all who work and give to this charity.
