PowerNet Global (News - Alert), a provider of VoIP call center solutions, has just revealed that it will be sponsoring the second Annual Blazin’ With Love 5K Run/Walk and Cornhole Tournament. The proceeds of the event will go to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the Tri-State Southern Ohio Chapter.
Families of three children affected by blood cancers and blood disorders have joined the team to raise awareness and funds for research. Of the three families, two children have successfully completed bone marrow transplants. The other is back to sports after two and a half years of treatment.
The events will take place in Mason at The Golf Center at Kings Island. Event highlights include a kids’ run, silent auction, wine ring toss, music, and food.
“To the many families affected by Leukemia and Lymphoma, we offer our support,” Bernie Stevens, president and CEO of PowerNet Global, the presenting sponsor of the event, said in a statement. “The passion that friends and family have for those affected does not go unnoticed. We wish the families and the event continued success.”
Other Platinum sponsors of the second Annual Blazin’ With Love 5K Run/Walk and Cornhole Tournament are Hoxworth Blood Center and Buckeye Running Company.
