Former WWE Diva Dawn Marie has teamed with recording artist Michele “Fuchsia” Mupo to form an entertainment company called MUDA .

In honor of Veteran’s Day, MUDA is creating a music video for their initiative, “Keep the Peace.” The goal of “Keep the Peace” is to help rehabilitate the homes of disabled veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. Help them achieve this goal by making a donation here. Any support will help out greatly.

Also, support Dawn’s charity “Wrestler’s Rescue” an organization dedicated to supporting health care needs of retired professional wrestlers.

Dave Mustaine is teaming up with my friend Steve Sievers for a special episode of his web cartoon, “Supa Pirate Booty Hunt.” Help Steve and his partner Dahveed bring you more episodes by making a donation on their Kickstarter page.
