Hosted by J.K. Lee Black Belt Academy on Saturday September 11th at the Corners of Brookfield, participants are each given a board to break and a pledge is made for each one. This event raises money for childhood cancer research.
Twenty-seven years ago, one of our students was tragically diagnosed with cancer.
Grand Master Lee and our instructors knew we had to find a way to help our students and community.
Since then, J.K. Lee Black Belt Academy has sponsored a fundraiser called the J.K. Lee Board Break-A-Thon. This event raises money for childhood cancer research. Over the past 27 years we have raised over one million dollars for this cause. This year we are teaming up with the MACC fund to reach our goal of $50,000.
Each participant is given one board to break, and a pledge is made for each board. We recommend accepting the money at the same time the pledge is made. Prizes will be awarded for the top three people who raise the most pledges. Participants who raise over $50.00 will receive a J.K. Lee Board Break-A-Thon t-shirt, while supplies last. Checks should be made out to the MACC Fund. Set up your family's own fundraising website to gather pledges online.
