Can You Help Us, Hugh Jackman?

April 22, 2009 by admin · 1 Comment 

hughjackman1Hugh Jackman, an Australian actor/producer and People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive, started a contest and pledged to donate $100,000 (Australian) to a charity. The catch is he has to be convinced in 140 characters or less on Twitter which charity is most deserving.

He plans to announce the winner on Ryan Seacrest’s morning radio show on Friday, April 24.

Many people are calling it a publicity stunt. Maybe it is. But I figured it wouldn’t hurt to give the CANcer Crushers a little plug. We would love to get this donation for American Cancer Society.

If you have a Twitter account, please cut and paste the following message to your Twitter stream.

RT @RealHughJackman ~ We are kids recycling cans to raise $$$ to fight cancer. Save a can! Save a life! http://cancercrushers.com/

If you don’t have a Twitter account, go to www.Twitter.com and sign up. It’s free, it’s easy, and it’s a lot of fun! Make sure you add CANcer Crushers as your friend.

Mr. Jackman, if you’re reading this, please consider the CANcer Crushers. We’re saving the environment and helping to save lives at the same time! You can easily make your donation directly to American Cancer Society on behalf of our team right here.

It’s amazing what you can find on YouTube. I just stumbled across this commercial that American Cancer Society aired back in 1969. I wish more people would have paid attention to it.

CiCi’s Fundraiser Extended

April 9, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Enjoying CiCi'sThanks to all our friends and family who came out and supported the CANcer Crushers at the CiCi’s Pizza fundraiser in Saginaw last night. We had a great turnout.

Unfortunately, about halfway through, the electricity went out and CiCi’s had to close early. Many of you were turned away at the door.

Therefore, CiCi’s generously extended our fundraiser until this Sunday. So you can go into CiCi’s anytime between now and Sunday night and tell them you are there to support the CANcer Crushers. We’ll get credit for that. You can also order out!

Thanks again for your support!

pulidosThank you Pulido’s in Saginaw for letting the CANcer Crushers sell raffle tickets in front of your restaurant on Friday evening.

The kids made $91 for American Cancer Society in only two short hours! That brought their fund raising total to $3,922 so far.

Thanks also to all the wonderful customers who made it possible.

Please Pray for Blake

This little boy desperately needs our prayers. Kids should never even know what the word cancer means. That’s why the CANcer Crushers do what we do! One day we hope to help find a cure for this dreadful disease.
