American Martial Arts Kicking for the Cure
From Dionne Kiloh --
pink belt.jpg American Martial Arts is raising money to find a cure for Breast Cancer through their students and the public. We are opening our doors for the public to attend a fun, festive, and life changing event for those who are affected, have been affected, or may be affected by breast cancer in their lives.
The event will be on Wednesday October 14, 2015 from 6:30 to 8:30pm. The event will be held at 1027 n Harbor Blvd, Fullerton, CA 92832. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. A representative will be there at 7 pm to accept a check for more than $5,500.00 and talk to us about the research, foundation and its mission. Free kids workshops will be held from 6:30 to 7:00pm. Free Adult karate workshops will continue following until 8:30 pm. THE PUBLIC IS WELCOME. There is no cost to attend. Food, drinks, and music will be available to everyone. Pink wrist bands to support the cause will be for sale in the amount of $5.00.
We the students at AMAA wanted to give back. This campaign was put together by a group of students called “The red belt academy”. We are hoping to test in January for our black belts. Part of our journey is to give back to the community. We felt the choice of supporting Breast Cancer would impact more than our own area, but help everyone affected in some way. The academy decided to sell pink karate belts for the students and staff to wear during the month of October, showing our dedication to the cause.
American Martial Arts Academy put this in place more than 20 years ago. Twice a year there is a test for black belt, and with each academy the choice of a community project changes. I think this is our best one yet! Please join us as we have raised more than $5,500.00 and the number is still rising. Come celebrate with us, and be part of the quest for the cure.
