“Bowling For Boobies” is a Go-Go!
LOS ANGELES-(Business Wire)-September 28, 2009 - Busted Foundation announced today that it’s “got a double header” for its upcoming annual Bowling for Boobies fundraising event by adding international music star Jane Wiedlin and Thomas Lennon, who plays Lieutenant Jim Dangle on Comedy Central's “Reno 911.” Lennon will also be auctioning off on eBay one of his uniforms from the hit “Reno 911.” On Tuesday, Oct. 27 at Jillian's on Universal City Walk, Wiedlin and Lennon will appear and bowl, helping raise money to support local women dealing with financial devastation as a result of breast cancer.
"I am thrilled to be back and bowling with this amazing event! I am honored to have been a supporter of Bowling for Boobies since it began in 2004. The need for health care support is on everyone's minds right now and this is my way of making a difference. Boobs are hot, cancer is not!" said Wiedlin.
The proceeds raised from this event help Busted Foundation provide monetary assistance to local women experiencing financial challenges as the result of fighting and living with breast cancer. Donations go directly to support these women.
Bowling for Boobies asks bowlers to organize teams of six people raising a team goal of $6,000 for women who are fighting breast cancer. On October 27, 2009 (6:00pm - 9:00pm) the teams come together to bowl at Jillian's, Universal City Walk. Teams and individuals are eligible for prizes in this high energy, incredibly colorful and outrageous social event. Raffle tickets and prizes will also be available.
“Let's rack 'em up to support the rack!” said Stefanie LaHart, founder of Busted. “We are ready for a night of fun and fundraising. Breast cancer is devastating and this is our way of raising awareness and money for women on the front lines of the breast cancer battle.” Those not in the area who wish to contribute are encouraged to make a direct donation via www.bowlingforboobies.com and receive event updates via Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/bowling4boobies.
All told, prior Bowling for Boobies events have raised almost $164,000 to benefit women fighting breast cancer.
