The Bee Foundation - Brain Aneurysm Research

Our Events
From sponsored athletic events such as the Philadelphia Marathon and Golf Classic, to our major annual Honey Bash Gala, to events hosted by our supporters to honor their loved ones, we offer multiple opportunities throughout the year for you to get involved and join our enthusiastic community.

Join The Bee Foundation for their first annual Aneurysms & The Arts event at Cosmic Cafe on July 18th. This special event celebrates the works of artists while also supporting brain aneurysm prevention. For many of us art and expression is a pathway to overcome challenges and seek beauty. Many of the artists that will be featured have been touched by brain aneurysms.

The Bee Foundation Awareness Events

Friends and families affected by brain aneurysms are holding events around the country to honor their loved ones and raise research funds and increase awareness. There may be one near you! And if you’re interested in hosting an event of your own, just contact us at [email protected]. We can help!
