Special Event M3: Monday Madness Make-Over Alan Williams Salon Benefiting the 2008 Arizona 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk
|  |
It’s been said that all great things must first be imagined. IMAGINE when the power of ONE multiplied by many can do great and wonderful things together, as ONE. IMAGINE beauty in its entire splendor, in us, in others, all around the world. IMAGINE when we don’t have to imagine there being breast cancer.
Doug Klinge, a partner in Alan Williams Hair Salon, has said, “It’s not every day that you get a chance to do and give back in the way many have before in past years towards this worthy cause.” “There is no time better than now to do so, as breast cancer has not only affected my life it is one of those diseases that does not discriminate against who and all it has affected.” The goal is to raise $40,000, and Doug says, “Together we can do it.”
So, Team W.I.S.H. Arizona, the #1 fundraising team for the Arizona 3-Day for the past 4 years, has teamed up with Alan Williams Salon for 12 hours of rock n’ roll, rinse lather and repeat makeovers, hair cuts, manicures, & pedicures to benefit breast cancer research. The goal is to raise $40,000, and Doug says, “Together we can do it.”
M3: Monday Madness Make-Over event, supported by 400 volunteers and the entire staff of Alan Williams Salon want you to walk, drive or run over for a day of beauty in remembrance and thoughts of all those affected by breast cancer. All services are donated and every amount of money raised that day is going to breast cancer research. There will also be raffle drawings for prizes, gift baskets, and future salon services.
Supported by, Team W.I. S.H. Arizona (Walking In Spirit and Hope), which in the past 4 years has raised over $650,000 in support of the Arizona 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk benefiting Susan G. Komen For The Cure. As stated, by Carol Stacy, Captain of Team W.I.S.H., “To be included in 12 hours of fundraising with a wonderful group of people is fun and exciting! There isn’t a person I talk to that hasn’t been touched by breast cancer in some way and we’re here to support Doug, Alan and their team.”
The day to remember is Monday, May 5 , 2008 from 8:00 am until 8:00 pm, at Alan Williams Hair Salon, located at th 5302 N. 7 St., Phoenix, AZ 85014. Remember, 1 in 7 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and as many as th 2,500 men a year. So, let’s continue to walk two steps forward towards supporting breast cancer research.
