Remember Betty Foundation

After the death of his mother, Betty, from breast cancer in 1999, New Kids On The Block member Danny Wood searched for a way to keep her memory alive. During his break from NKOTB in the 90’s and early 2000’s, he partnered with well known breast cancer charities to help raise funds for breast cancer research & early detection.

The return of NKOTB in 2008 gave Danny a larger audience for the story of his mother and her fight against breast cancer. Fans began walking & raising money directly for these charities at breast cancer awareness races across the US and Canada in 2009. Rallying behind their brother, the members of NKOTB created pink ribbon items to sell during their reunion tour. Using his mother’s memory as inspiration, Danny released a solo album, ‘Stronger: Remember Betty’, with all proceeds being donated directly to a well known breast cancer charity.Our mission is to help minimize the financial burden associated with breast cancer for patients & survivors by providing direct financial support to them so that they can focus on recovery & quality of life.

Our mission is to make sure that the legacy of Betty Wood lives on. We have received 501(c)3 status from the Internal Revenue Service. Donations to Remember Betty are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law. Tax ID available upon request.

Peace of mind that your rent; mortgage; utilities; car payments; insurance; food; medical bills are paid so you may recover Mind Body and Soul!
