2026 Red & White Ball Champion Leaderboard
What begins as a single act of generosity gains momentum that can change lives across generations and advances the practice of medicine itself.
Your support can help:
GROW THE BLOOD SUPPLY
Blood transfusions are the most common procedure in hospitals and South Texas Blood & Tissue (STB&T) plays a vital role in ensuring patients receive lifesaving care.
Blood donors are more critical than ever.
- 20% of Texas depends on blood from STB&T
- 1 in 7 patients will need a blood transfusion
- 15-20% growing need in blood is being driven by rapid population growth in South Texas
Your support can help STB&T build a permanent donor center in the Rio Grande Valley, giving more Texans an opportunity to save lives.
A larger donor base will strengthen our Heroes in Arms® pre-hospital blood supply, saving lives before patients reach the hospital.
Lyric
For Lyric and many living with sickle cell disease, blood transfusions are lifesaving, reducing pain and improving quality of life.
BRING ADVANCED CARE CLOSER TO HOME
Cell and gene therapies begin with human cells donated by patients and healthy volunteers. These breakthroughs are transforming how cancer and auto-immune diseases are treated, but access remains limited:
- Only 7 Texas Centers can deliver commercially available CAR T-Cell Therapies
- Due to access barriers, Only 20% of CAR T-Cell Therapy eligible patients recieve treatment
- Access to these therapies often depends on how far a patient can travel
In 2025, BBG Advanced Therapies launched the world's first mobile leukapheresis center, bringing critical cell collection to underserved communities and closing gaps in cancer care.
Simon
Inspired by his late father's fight with cancer, Simon has donated blood since 16 and in 2025 became the first stem cell donor in the mobile leukapheresis center.
