United Metal Against Cancer

A chance to save someone.

About Me

A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS SCREAMING INK, WHO KINDLY DONATED OUR FIRST T SHIRTS TO US.
We are a Non Profit Organization registered with the IRS
United Metal Against Cancer EIN 74-3187393
United Metal Against Cancer was formed by the president of Chaotic Beauty Music Management and Touring,Kimberly James.This is a Non-Profit organization.United Metal Against Cancer is a chance for the metal community to give back to the world and prove we aren't a bunch of screamers that don't care.UMAC concerts are thrown across the globe to raise money for victims of cancer,all proceeds are used to help people in dire need with no medical insurance pay their bills,get needed treatment,and even help with burial if needed ..If you are a band,promoter,music company or any company or person that wants to get involved,please contact us.Message from our founder,Kimberly:
I was sitting here on my 32nd birthday and asked myself...if I died tomorrow,what did I leave behind?You know what my answer was..nothing very important.I lost many loved ones and friends to the cancer demon many that had no insurance or had little money to save themselves,and frankly I'm tired of it.Please join me in the fight.Leave behind a legacy for others to follow!!!! Its sad..its sick...its inhuman.....children,elderly,people from all walks of life dying because they cant afford the care they need,cant get insured,or just cant afford it.I'm not going to sit here and shut up and not do anything about it.Its a growing problem. Rich get to live and the poor have to die???Are you kidding me?Stop this nonsense!!!Little kids.....children are dying.You donate,you buy a shirt,you play a show for free....somebody has to make it stop......WE will make it stop.
