In November of 2016, we lost our friend Jessi-Ann. Jess received a heart transplant when she was a junior at Brewster High School and lived almost 10 beautiful years because of that organ donation. She spent much of that time advocating for organ donation through legislation and community outreach. This donation will be made in her memory to New York State Donate Life to honor and continue her work.

Over seventeen years ago, Ben's cousin Alex's wife, Deb, lost her one-year battle with leukemia at the age of 28. Deb was treated at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and, after her death, Alex formed Team Bueno. Every year, Team Bueno rides in the Pan Mass Challenge, raising money for cancer research (Ben rode with them in 2014 and 2018). To date, Team Bueno has raised over $1 million to help Deb's doctors to continue their ground breaking research. Every penny donated here will go to the Deb F. Bartfeld Research Fund at Dana-Farber, which researches new treatments for blood cancers.
