Posted on | December 31, 2009 | No Comments

A Fighters Chance- the newest, most progressive, and driven MMA charity in the sport has teamed up with our newest official sponsor Mixed Martial Arts Expos (http://philadelphia.mixedmartialartsexpo.com/) and will have a booth set up at their Philly expo on January 9 – 10. We will have two celebrities at our booth – Brian Foster of the UFC and Matt Hughes’ HIT Squad and Jeremiah Riggs of TUF, Daisy of Love, and Matt Hughes’ HIT Squad. We will be taking donations for autographs and selling Wreckage gear. Come by and visit our booth you’ll be glad you did!!!!

The basis of the charity stems from the founder, Shane Lee, and his battle with Cerebral Palsy throughout his life and most importantly the huge role MMA played in his therapy and accomplishments. He literally improved his CP which was something he was told could not be done. Not only does he practice the sport he is a coach, freelance writer appearing in MMA Worldwide and TapouT magazines, MMA correspondent, and Coach. The AFC’s initial concept is to focus on assisting disabled children and teenagers but their growth plan is to provide MMA scholarships, summer camps, help for disabled MMA veteran’s, and Martial Arts Training for the underprivileged. We believe that everyone deserves a fighting chance but we can’t make these things happen without your help so the AFC is looking for people, companies, and organizations that wish to help sponsor this initiative. Please help give others “A Fighter’s Chance”!
