On 9/10/11 in Midland Texas, at Midland College Chaparral Center, 24/7 Entertainment and Rhino BJJ are hosting a charity grappling event during the day before the pro MMA show that night.
My goal is to try and garner support from known MMA companies and fighters to help make this event a success. I have never understood paying money to a celebrity to come to a charity, instead, I feel that money would be better served going upwards the actual charity.
I am looking for sponsor money for trophies/medals for the division winners, and also looking for gear to raffle off, such as regular training gear from shirts to gloves to mats etc, all the way to autographed memorabilia from MMA stars.
If helping to pay it forward in this event is something you or someone you know may want to be a part of, please get back to me.
Sponsors will be listed on all flyers, promotional material, press releases, videos etc.
Thank you,

All are donating items to be given away/raffled. I appreciate it so much and I'm sure it goes without saying that it feels good to do something positive to help others.
I'll post more event info Monday.
