Sing with CHICAGO to fight Cancer !!

 

Hey All You Rock Fans: Sing With Chicago and Fight Breast Cancer !!

Grammy-Winning Band Chicago and American Cancer Society Team Up for Third Year of the Hit Promotion

Chicago has teamed up with the American Cancer Society for the third year in a row to give fans a chance to bid to sing with them during their tour across the U.S.
Fans across the country will be able to bid on a great package that includes a meet and greet with the band, two premium tickets, backstage passes, and a special opportunity to sing the classic hit song "If You Leave Me Now" onstage with the band during the concert.

Fans can bid in the auction at www.cancer.org/singwithchicago starting Friday February 24, 2012 and all proceeds directly benefit the American Cancer Society’s fight against breast cancer. 

In 2010, the band joined forces with the American Cancer Society, to create "Sing With Chicago", a highly successful promotion that has raised over $130,000 to fight breast cancer. “The Sing With Chicago promotion was such a great time for our fans, and contributed so much to the breast cancer cause, that we wanted to do it on our 2012 tour, too,” said Peter Schivarelli, Chicago's manager. “We’re doing it this year in honor of our friend Paqui Kelly, the wife of Notre Dame’s head football coach Brian Kelly, who is a breast cancer survivor.”

The American Cancer Society is pleased  that Chicago is offering this amazing opportunity for the third straight year, and that the band remains dedicated to using their musical talents to help create a world with less cancer.

What an exciting way for our American Cancer Society supporters to fight breast cancer and have a once-in-a-lifetime experience onstage with this amazing band.

HOW AWESOME IS THAT !
