For the second consecutive year, Omatic Snowboards has teamed up with ESPN and The V Foundation to help raise money for cancer research through snowboarding.
“After a successful fundraiser last year, O-Matic Snowboards has doubled their efforts in creating more boards to help deliver the knockout blow in the cancer fight,” says Marketing Director and Pro shredder Todd Richards. “Our boards will be partnered with signature artists, athletes and celebrities where they will then be auctioned off at Winter X Games 12 in Aspen, CO, as well on www.expn.com with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the V Foundation¹s efforts.”
The V Foundation was founded in 1993 by former North Carolina State men¹s basketball coach and ESPN commentator, Jim Valvano. Since 1993, The V Foundation has raised more than $70 million, and has awarded hundreds of cancer research grants nationwide for all types of cancers. The V Foundation now awards 100% of all new direct cash donations and net proceeds of events directly to cancer research and related programs.
