MS. MAINE ELITE WOMAN OF ACHIEVEMENT HELPS FUNDRAISE FOR PLANET HEAD DAY/C.A.N.C.E.R. ORGANIZATION

(February 2014--It was another sucessful year for the Caring Area Neighbors for Cancer Education and Recovery of Aroostook County, Maine. Several thousands of dollars was raised to help cancer patients in transportation and necessity costs, and ALL the proceeds stay right in Aroostook County. Shawn Cunningham, Ms. Maine Elite WOA 2014 and a TV Personality for Team WAGM helped in the cause. All members of Team WAGM led by News Director Chris Weimer spent multiple weekends fundraising for the event that culminated at the University of Maine at Presque Isle.

 

Planet Head Day is a day to celebrate survivors, care givers and bring the county community together to put an awareness spotlight on CANCER and the need to have more funding for services that directly impact local patients receiving treatment. This is the fourth year WAGM has shown more than just a fiscal commitment but a full team effort as represented by station members attending the event....shaving and getting their heads painted for this extraordinary cause.

THIS YEAR, Ms. Maine Elite WOA Shawn Cunningham along with her husband AJ Cloukey and infant son, Aaron James were one of two families honored as being Families of Commitment at the event.

 

"""I look forward every year to being at Planet Head Day and gearing up for it by fundraising at various places throughout the county including Graves Shop and Save and the Aroostook Center Mall. I love seeing the people and engaging with them about how this cause truly touches the lives of everyone as we all know someone impacted by Cancer. This is our way to truly make a positive difference...we never know if at any time we may be the ones receiving these services some day. its truly rewarding...AJ and I are thrilled to be honored this year as a young family, we want to teach our son, Aaron that giving back is an integral part of life. its what makes you truly a part of the community you live. I can't wait for next year!
