Team WAGM Planet Head Day Fundraiser...Its Great to Give

February 4th, 2012

TEAM WAGM Continue to Fundraise for Planet Head Day Event to benefit C.A.N.C.E.R.



Team WAGM (Shawn Cunningham and Chris Weimer)



Team WAGM (Shawn Cunningham and Chris Weimer) would like to thank everyone who came by and donated today to our cause to help raise funds for the upcoming Planet Head Day event at UMPI on Feb. 18th. The date is approaching fast and we're on our way of fundraising money that will go to help the local organization C.A.N.C.E.R. which stands for Caring Area Neighbors for Cancer Education and Recovery.

This organization is unique and amazing in the fact that they started with just a small group of concerned volunteers wanting to make a difference in those dealing with the devastating effects of cancer in the local county community. There isn't anyone who isn't personally touched or doesn't know someone who is dealing with this debilitating disease. Cancer remains the number one chronic health issue affecting people in the U.S., and the world for that matter. Cancer is also a very expensive disease. Doctors visits, treatments and travel to seek treatment cost money. This organization helps offset the cost and burden for patients through donations that help with travel expenses, hospital and hotel stays, meals, etc. for people in need. This is one way a community can come together to effect change, change lives and live to make a difference in the lives of others. If by just painting my head and collecting donations is one way to help give something back to those in need...COUNT ON ME to be there. I'm pretty HEADSTRONG, so this actually works out well!





Thank you to our devoted viewers and fans who came out to meet us and donate to this amazing cause! You're the AMAZING ones.



A BIG thanks goes to Graves Shop and Save for giving us front store space to raise funds from patrons and they also contributed a GENEROUS donation. I will be having my head painted and our Chris Weimer is going the distance by having his head shaved. We're BOTH going the distance for this great cause. So you can say we're throwing our "heads" into the ring to help a worthy cause. Every donation is appreciated and is money well spent.



Team WAGM would like to thank Greg Graves for his support and generous donation. His Graves Shop and Save store staff and family are AMAZING!



And again, WAGM-TV will match what our team raises up to a certain amount. Oh my goodness, thank you to all the viewers who came by to see us today. We had such a great time meeting all of you. Thank you all for your continued support and if you didn't come by Graves today, its not too late. There are donation cannisters at the store and they'll be collecting on our behalf, ALSO we'll be at the Aroostook Centre Mall next weekend, Saturday Feb. 11th for another fundraising meet and greet. Feel free to catch us there. AND you can donate via our facebook page. PLUS, you can send funds in directly to the C.A.N.C.E.R. organization just contact WAGM for more information on how to do that and remember to sya you're supporting Team WAGM.

But EVERY dollar raised goes toward this great cause.
