Holiday Havoc Slugfest: Th1rte3n vs. Lulu.

With Thanksgiving and the season of giving on the horizon, I wanted to spotlight a couple of causes I think are important.

The first is the “Katie Welling Memorial Run.” A two and a half mile run in honor of my friend that raises money for the Bronxville School Foundation.  Click here for information on how to sign up or make a donation.

The second is “Leadership Initiatives” an NGO my friend created that empowers communities to “address their own needs through education, business development, and local micro-financing that is invested by the community’s middle-class” with recommendations USAID, the State Department, and the Embassy of Nigeria.  They have been invited to take part in Chase Bank’s annual Community Giving and with your support can receive a grant of $25,00. Please vote for them here.

Thank you very much for any contribution you can make to these causes.

 

 

 

 

 

Happy National Metal Day.

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.
