Willie’s Heartfelt Mission
At the Child Cancer Research Foundation, we are constantly inspired by the incredible individuals who step forward to support our mission of fighting childhood cancer. One such individual is a familiar face at the Leisure Inn in Rockingham, a wonderful character known as Willie.
Willie’s uncanny resemblance to the legendary Willie Nelson isn’t the only thing that makes him special – it’s his unwavering dedication to raising funds for our foundation that truly warms our hearts.
Thanks to Willie’s tireless efforts, encouraging patrons to donate whatever they can at the bar, we recently received a generous donation of $2,515 from the Leisure Inn.
Willie first became involved with our cause last year when he dyed his hair bright pink to raise funds for our foundation. To date, he has raised just under $4,000 for CCRF, and he is not stopping there. Willie, together with Leisure Inn Manager Sally, he has set an ambitious goal for next year: to raise an impressive $10,000.
Willie’s motivation to support our foundation runs deep, as his family has been affected by the gruelling disease. Willie’s dedication and commitment to making a difference is truly inspiring and we’re proud to have him as part of our extended CCRF family.
The Leisure Inn has now stepped up in its support for CCRF by hosting one of our convenient Quest Donation Point Taps. These payment systems provide the opportunity to accept donations electronically and securely at any location.
Willie’s dedication and the Leisure Inn’s commitment are shining examples of the power of community support in the fight against childhood cancer. We are so grateful for their generosity, and we look forward to achieving greater milestones together.
If you would like to support Willie’s mission, make a donation towards childhood cancer research and mention Willie or the Leisure Inn in the notes!
