BENEFITING: New Venture Fund
EVENT: Mozilla Firefox Challenge

HERE’S THE STORY:

Mozilla Firefox just launched an AMAZING holiday campaign and is donating $25k to the charity that raises the most money and I want to win that money for F Cancer!

What is F Cancer you may ask? Why am I swearing? Well…for good reason.

With the exponential growth in technology and education, F Cancer has set out to educate everyone to recognize crucial early warning signs of cancer and inspire them turn around and spread the word to loved ones who may be at risk.

So many important charities are focused on finding a cure, when over 90% of all cancers are curable if detected in stage one – Crazy right? If it was any other disease, we’d say that a cure has been found. It’s definitely important that we continue research, but right now, early detection is the best cure we have for cancer. And yet, not everyone knows that.

We can save lives just by showing people how to detect early signs of cancer.

Let’s put an end to late stage cancer diagnosis. Here’s how you can help…

Educate yourself here.
Donate, Join my team, and help me raise money and win $25k for this important cause.
Get the word out about early detection. Tell your friends. Tell your family. Tell anyone that’s willing to listen.

Early detection is key and the only cure that we have. Join my team and help win $25,000 for F Cancer this holiday season.

If you give $29 right now, you’ll be entered to win an FCancer tee and I’ll sign it and everything. You can check out all the rules for the contest below.

Watch this video below to hear the story behind F Cancer from it’s founder Yael Cohen

We got a new teaser promo released for the final season yesterday. We have added caps that combine both the longer version and a shorter one that was shown last night during Gossip Girl. You can watch both below.

Come Back One Last Time

Here’s the first season 9 promo that they showed at the Evening with One Tree Hill. It’s not the best quality but good enough for those of us who weren’t able to attend the event.

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Third time’s the charm for a die-hard “One Tree Hill” fan whose quest was to meet star Sophia Bush despite cerebral palsy.

On her third trip from Cleveland, OH, to Wilmington to watch the filming of “One Tree Hill,” Melissa Fowler finally met Bush. When told of Fowler’s love of the show and of her, Bush walked from the “Karen’s Café” set downtown to meet and sign a couple autographs for Fowler.

“Just everything she does on Crowdrise and all the environmental work she does and she seems like a really great person and someone who really cares about people and about everything in the world it’s just… I’ve never seen anyone like her,” Fowler said of her idol.

The cast and crew are working on the ninth and final season of “One Tree Hill.” Shooting is scheduled to wrap up later this month.
