Actor/comedian Will Ferrell is getting serious about fundraising and is offering up a once in a lifetime experience to benefit his favorite charity to prove it.
Everyone who visits the Cancer For College fundraising website and makes a $26 charitable donation is automatically entered to win a trip to join Will at an upcoming charity golf event. The events include a foursome at the18th Annual Will Powered Golf Classic and Kinda Humorous Comedy Show on August 26th, 2011 at the Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, California or the grand prize of a weekend for two to the Pebble Beach Golf Resort in California on October 28-30, 2011 to be part of the inaugural Will Powered Invitational.
“We are so fortunate to have such a loyal supporter and friend as Will Ferrell,” said Cancer for College Founder Craig Pollard of his friend and former fraternity brother at the University of Southern California. “People can be charitable with their time or their money, and Will is extremely generous to our cause with both. I think it’s a testament to these amazing kids who have survived cancer and just want to return to some sort of normalcy in their life. Thanks to Will we are going to be able to help a lot of survivors through this promotion.”
The 18th Annual Will Powered Golf Classic will be played at the Pechanga Resort and Casino. The winner will receive a foursome in the golf tournament, airfare to California, two nights accommodations at the Pechanga Resort and Casino plus four premier tickets to the Kinda Humorous Comedy Show which features Will Ferrell and a number of his funniest friends for a night of stand-up comedy, sketches and musical performances.
