    The Poseys Raise over $1 million at BP28 Takes the Field in 2021!

    Kristen and Buster were delighted to welcome nearly 250 very generous friends and supporters to BP28 Takes the Field on September 27. This year’s event benefitted the Posey Family Grants at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital.

    BP28 Takes the Field took place entirely outdoors on the field at Oracle Park to help ensure the health and safety of all guests. Cocktails on the field were followed by a delicious dinner by Bon Appetit Management Company, with wines provided by Duckhorn Vineyards. An auction of memorable experiences brought excitement to the program, with guests bidding on a round of golf with Buster, an exclusive wine tasting experience at Duckhorn Vineyards, hosted by CEO Alex Ryan, and more. Country music artist Tyler Rich capped off the evening with an intimate musical performance featuring his hit songs, Leave Her Wild and Better Than You’re Used To, among others.

    The highlight of the evening was hearing from a truly remarkable family who has been impacted by this terrible disease – Patrick Sullivan, dad of Rory and incredible fund raiser for UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals, passionately shared how much work is still to be done in this fight. Even after her battle with Wilms tumor, Rory is still suffering the long-term health effects of the toxicity of current treatments – and she is not alone. As many as 85% of pediatric cancer survivors deal with lifelong medical complications. It has been said that pediatric cancer is either a death sentence or a life sentence. Together, with everyone’s support, we’re working to make it neither.
