Baby Huey & His Cousin’s ‘Delly Drive’ Make-A-Wish Foundation Fundraiser


Hey Boneheads,

Baby Huey here, and recently my 23-year-old cousin Jack was diagnosed with lymphoma cancer.

Jack Delmore graduated from the University of California, Berkeley last May. Jack played on CAL’s baseball team during his junior year and was supposed to play his senior year, but the pandemic caused their entire season to be canceled. That alone is such a bummer because he thought he would not have a chance to use up his last year of eligibility to play College Sports. Luckily, he was able to transfer to Holy Names University in Oakland and was recruited to play for their team.

Unfortunately, with his diagnosis, he’s not able to play this season, and instead he has begun treatment. Despite all these setbacks I’m so proud to find out that with the help of his team, they are partnering with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to raise money to help make a wish come true for another child in need. I respect how despite being sick he’s trying to pay it forward and help someone else get their wish fulfilled.

If you would like to make a donation to Jack Delmore’s Make-A-Wish Fundraiser aka the Delly Drive, please click here.

Thank you for the support, Boneheads.
-Baby Huey

More Info About the Delly Drive:

The Delly Drive campaign is inspired by Jack Delmore, a member of Holy Names’ baseball team and Hawk family, who was recently diagnosed with lymphoma cancer before the start of the season. Jack grew up in Alameda and attended Saint Joseph Notre Dame High school as well as Chabot JC. As a graduate transfer from UC Berkeley, the Hawks were expecting Jack to be an integral part of their team. Although the news came as a shock, Jack has taken this challenge head on with his family, friends, teammates, and Hawk Nation by his side.

Jack is a true inspiration not only on the baseball field, but as a young man. In true Jack form, Jack has decided to help others and partner with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to help make some young child’s dream come true.

A wish come true helps children feel stronger, more energetic, more willing and able to battle their critical illnesses. For many, the wish marks a turning point in the fight against their illnesses. Doctors, nurses and other health professionals say, the wish experience works in concert with medicine to make their patients feel better emotionally and even physically. That is why wishes matter.

The HNU Baseball team is taking on the Make-A-Wish pledge today with Jack leading the way. We hope you will join us in the Delly Drive to help reach our goal to make a wish for a child and their family today.

Stronger Than Cancer
Together for Delly
