Tawny Alonzo's Story

I am so excited to be a Captain for the Blue Team in my THIRD YEAR with BVB Dallas! I am honored to represent my team, this amazing organization, and the millions in the country affected by Alzheimer's Disease. It is truly going to take a team effort to TACKLE ALZ!

BvB Dallas is a young-professional organization that hosts a powder-puff football game for a day of fun, fellowship, philanthropy and enjoyment as a way of raising money for Alzheimer’s research and awareness. Founded by sisters whose father was afflicted by Alzheimer’s, BvB is a personal way for young professionals across the country to raise awareness, funds and support to TACKLE ALZHEIMER'S FOREVER.

Every 65 seconds someone in the US is diagnosed, and 5.7 million Americans are currently living with this disease. This number is expected to rise in coming years. By giving to BvB Dallas, you are giving directly to beneficiaries in the DFW area who provide care to those affected and are making amazing strides in research. Without you, their work could not continue. 

COVID-19 completely turned our world upside down last year, but despite the challenges, we were able to press forward to raise a QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLARS for the cause. Personally, I was able to raise $7,400 because of the amazing generosity and philanthropic spirit of those around me. With your help, we were able to fund our two amazing beneficiaries....UT Southwestern and The Senior Source. 

Today, I am asking you for you to join our winning team and help with something that is very important to me, BvB Dallas. Whether you are able to donate $5 or $500, I would love your support in my continued fight against Alzheimer's Disease. Our beneficiaries need your help now more than ever. The fight isn't over and BvB Dallas won't stop until we've hit the endzone. 

In 2021, we are hoping to get things back on track. This year, we will be back in the Cotton Bowl on August 7, 2021 playing our flagship football game! Your donation of $25 or more gets you a seat at the game and to enjoy a night of fun and celebration in getting closer to the goal of eradicating Alzheimer's Disease. 

As always, my goal is to honor those who have been affected by Alzheimer's Disease. I'll be playing with my Grandpa Cliff's name on my arm, but also want to honor your loved one. With your donation, please let me know who you want me to play for and I'll ensure their name makes it on my arm for game day. This game is ALWAYS for them. 

Thank you for all of your continued support!
