Congratulations to our new American Idol!!! He did it, and we helped!
Bracelets still for sale!
We've been moved, touched, and rocked by David Cook's unforgettable performances on American Idol for this entire season. Now, here's a way that we can both give back to him and his family, AND show our pride as fans of this self-proclaimed "word nerd". Purchase a David Cook Fan Bracelet today for $12 and support three wonderful causes.
-The first cause, of course, is to show your love and support for David! (Pssst...all the cool Wordnerd fans will be wearing them at the tour this summer!)
-Secondly, half of the proceeds from the bracelets will go to a fund specifically set up to help David's older brother Adam, who is suffering from a brain tumor. Thankfully, Adam was able to attend the finale and watch David achieve his dream! Everything fell into place, and the finale was an amazing experience for the entire Cook family. Unfortunately, the medical bills and expenses continue to mount for Adam, along with his wife and two small children. We have set up a fund at the Cooks' local bank, which you can read all about here. All of that money goes directly to the Cook family, and will be used to help defray medical costs.
-Lastly, the other half of the proceeds from the sale of these bracelets will go to the American Brain Tumor Association, a great organization which supports much-needed research and support for patients and families. Here's our official page which tracks how much money has been donated to the ABTA so far from bracelet proceeds - we're up to $6000!
I was lucky enough to be at the finale and present bracelets to the Cook family, including David. He and his family know what the bracelets are about, and every time they encounter a fan wearing one, they'll know exactly how you helped them, as well as other families going through the same ordeal. Here's a great screen cap of David wearing the bracelet during the AI Extra taping!
So please purchase your David Cook Fan Bracelet(s) today! Everyone should expect to receive their bracelets sometime before the summer Idol tour starts. Don't forget to tell your friends, family, message boards, fan clubs, etc. Let's do this, guys. Let's give back!
