Meet Brendan.

Brendan is an adult living with Spina Bifida and he is much, much more. He is a loving father, incredible patient advocate at 180 Medical, wheelchair softball player for the Minnesota Twins and is also a former president for the National Wheelchair Softball Association, where he has played with Team USA multiple times and is a Hall of Famer.

Brendan is passionate about sharing his experience to help empower, encourage, and support individuals with Spina Bifida and their families.

Why Your Support Matters

Every day, individuals and families impacted by Spina Bifida turn to SBA for support, hope, and resources. Your gift on this global day of giving allows SBA to continuing to create programs and services that build strength, confidence, and access to care. 

That's our mission. That's our promise. To build a better and brighter future for all those impacted by Spina Bifida.

Thank you for your support today and every day.

“It’s not about me. The money and donations fund the next generation. It’s my job to defend people — we and SBA can only do so much alone...While being born with Spina Bifida isn’t what I would’ve chosen… I have instead chosen to accept the hand I was dealt. By doing so, I’ll have a winning hand by the end of the game.”

- Brendan
