About Me


WE'RE RAISING MONEY FOR THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY RELAY FOR LIFE THERE IS NO FINISH LINE UNTIL WE FIND A CURE!!!
Hi! My name is Pam. Welcome to Rockin-For-A-Cure & thank you for checking us out! Not only is this page used to promote our event, but it's also used to spread hope & awareness about Cancer and Cancer advocacy issues. Rockin-For-A-Cure is a rock-n-roll charity event founded in 2003 to help raise money for the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life. Since 2003 this event has contributed thousands of dollars to my Relay-For-Life teams that have raised over $91,000 since 1999. All money raised @ Rockin-For-A-Cure and the money donated to the Relay For Life helps to support the American Cancer Society's research, education, advocacy, and service programs.
All the artists featured on our play list & in our top 8 have donated their time & incredable talents to past events, with the exception of Cromwell St. who had agreed to perform at the 2007 event before it was postponed. We thank them all!!
