While Beau Biden’s demise is tragic, it’s heartwarming to see that money put towards his campaign is going to a good use. The money remaining in his political accounts will fund the new Beau Biden Foundation for the Protection of Children. The charity has, so far, collected more than $250,000 in donations in its first week. As of December 31, Biden’s political committees, which included Beau PAC and Biden for Delaware, reported approximately $660,000.
Biden, the eldest son of Vice President Joe Biden, died on May 30 after a battle with brain cancer.
