Holy Slapstick Batman! Hell Walk 2 Fundraiser Raises the Bar with Geek-tastic Raffles!
Santa Monica, CA (June 21, 2012) - After walking around a 100-foot circle for 24 consecutive hours and succeeding in raising $25k for Children's Hope Chest for Hell Walk 1, Co-creator, and "Hell Walk-er", Josh Tate has a mission to push himself even further for Hell Walk 2. On June 30, 2012, instead of walking for 24 hours around a 100-foot circle, he's going to walk for 100 miles throughout Los Angeles and then end up at the Hell Walk 1 site: Dirt Cheap Soundstage (3019 Olympic Stage B, Santa Monica, CA) to conclude Hell Walk 2. Josh will be walking with a goal to raise $50k to create scholarships for Special Operations Warrior Foundation. This organization (www.SpecialOps.org) benefits the children of military personnel who have lost parents in combat.
Prior to the start of Hell Walk 2, a fundraiser, with a raffle & silent auction items, will be held on Saturday, June 23rd at Sonny McLean's (2615 Wilshire Boulevard) in Santa Monica, CA. Raffle tickets can also be purchased online or in-person at the event. It will be a fantastic night of live music, great food, cold drinks and AWESOME PRIZES so please come on by starting at 6 pm! The list of raffles keeps growing, so check out the updated page onwww.HellWalk.com/Fundraiser/ to find out what items are available.
About Hell Walk 2Hell Walk is a transparent organization with no bureaucracy. None of the funds raised will go to supporting any infrastructure or pay any salaries or expenses. All funds raised for Hell Walk 2 will go to fund five college scholarships (at $10,000 each) for military children who have lost their parents due to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Josh explains, "as the son of an Air Force veteran, I have always understood the immense sacrifices that our servicemen, servicewomen, and their families make every day. Too often, the sacrifice is the ultimate one. I know in my heart, [that raising $50k to go towards scholarships] will be the best thing I have EVER done in my life."
