Miami, FL (1888PressRelease) October 11, 2012 - Points For The Cure Innovative Fundraiser for RElay For Life Done From The Comfort of Your Home.

When football season started Jonathan JDOGG Lederman, Internet Radio Show Host and Amercian Cancer Society Volunteer thought of an innovative way to think globally while acting locally to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. He developed Points For The Cure, where people choose their favorite college football or NFL team and pledge 25 cents for each point they score and then visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogglederman and make their donation after the game. For example your favorite team is The Miami Dolphins they score 21 points and you visit the site and make a donation of $5.25. "I came up with this idea as a way to give people a fun way to support my efforts to honor the memory of my mother, Judith Miller, who passed on July 5, 2012, while also creating a world with less cancer and more birthdays.

The concept is easy you watch the game you cheer for your team and win or lose you can help create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. The beauty of this program is that there is no special party to attend, no checks to mail, all you do is visit the website after the game and make your donation based on the points your team scores," said Lederman who hopes to become a STAR Supporter for the 10th year in a row raising at least $1,500. Lederman will be participating in and emceeing The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton on February 23-24, 2013 at Loggers Run Middle School. When asked why he choose West Boca he stated "I have been involved with The West Boca Relay since its inception and though I live in Sunrise, FL now I have a special affinity for The West Boca Raton Relay."

Those who wish to participate in Points For Cure can do it for 1 week or for the entire season all they have to do is pick their team and then donate $.25 per point scored at http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogglederman. Lederman further stated " Think about it in The Baylor Vs. West Virginia Game the final Score was West Virginia 70 Baylor 63 so if you had West Virginia you would have donated $17.50 and if you had Baylor you would have donated $15.75 which is still very affordable. My hope is that those reading this article will see that most of the donations will be under $20, however with many people participating it will add up." Money raised from this project will be donated to Relay for Life to fund research, education, advocacy, and services. 100% of all donation go to Relay for Life.
