Who we are
We're friends and Chatham, NJ students who started the Chatham B+ Club in 2022. When we heard Andrew McDonough's story, we felt like he could have been any of us. He was a young student athlete with so much promise who passed away at age 14 from AML Leukemia. In the summer of 2021, we held our first Hoops for Hope basketball tournament fundraiser. It brings our community of students, families and local businesses together to Live Like Andrew.
"Young people like the Chatham B+ Club are the heart and soul of The Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation. We often say we are all about 'kids helping kids fight cancer' and that is exactly what the Chatham B+ Club is doing!
"With their support we will continue to help families fighting childhood cancer by assisting more families financially and funding more research. We are grateful for their drive, passion, and resourcefulness to bring their community together to make a difference for kids with cancer."
– Carly Bergstein, Executive Director, the Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation
