UDance benefits The Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation. The B+ (Be Positive) Foundation honors the memory of Andrew McDonough who passed away at age 14 from complications of leukemia. With your help, UDance will continue to support the B+ foundations three specific objectives; Keep the B+ Message alive, Provide financial assistance for families of critically ill children, and Sponsor research to find cures for pediatric cancer and advancements in chemotherapy.
Is UDance just dancing?
No, UDance is a 12-hour event that combines a B+ Heroes ceremony, entertainment from groups on campus and in the area, eating contests, dancing, floor games and more. While people do not dance for the full 12-hours, we do ask that no one sits down to honor the physical and emotional struggle our Heroes endure.Frequently Asked Questions
