Remember Betty Named National Team

Remember Betty is part of Susan G. Komen For The Cure's National Team program. Here is the article from the Remember Betty newsletter:

Remember Betty has been chosen to be part of Susan G. Komen For The Cure's new National Team program. It acknowledges Remember Betty as one of the most dedicated groups in the continued fight against breast cancer. Blockheads have raised over $780,000 for breast cancer research and prevention since the beginning of the NKOTB reunion.

"The Remember Betty phenomenon is so special to us because it is an unprecedented show of support for Komen from a very special group of people. Never has a celebrity been so personally involved and dedicated to our cause, or inspired so many people to get involved. What Danny has done in memory of his mother has undoubtedly helped us save countless lives, whether it's through the funds raised or by serving as a reminder to fans to live healthy and get screened," Carrie Glasscock, Director of Corporate Relations for Susan G. Komen explains.

"I am proud beyond words to know my mother's memory has influenced so many. Everything I am and continue to be I owe to Betty Wood. She shines down on all of us everyday," says Danny.
