Biggest Losers - Cunningham Lindsey

|
WICC platinum sponsor Cunningham Lindsey has launched an innovative fundraising event that’s soon to turn personal losses into WICC’s gains.
Employees Martin Moran, Kenny Huang, Albert Poon, John Seyler and Mike Laberge have accepted a challenge to lose weight over the next six months. Each will try to lose the largest percentage of body weight by June 30, 2010. The contestant who has lost the least percentage of weight must treat the other 'biggest losers', and spouses, to a lavish sushi dinner.
In the spirit of healthy competition, the contestants are accepting $5 pledges from supporters who, in exchange for their donation, can enter a pledge form on which they submit their best guess of the percentage of body weight lost by a participant. The top five entries that come closest to guessing the actual results will win one of five bottles of wine donated by Cunningham Lindsey.
All pledge money will be donated to WICC.
Since announcing the contest two weeks ago, Cunningham Lindsey employees have really put their weight behind the event having raised over $500 so far.
“The response from our employees has been tremendous,” said participant and ever-shrinking Martin Moran, AVP, Desktop Solutions. “Not only have they shown great support for our personal efforts but they have demonstrated, once again, their support of WICC and the wonderful work they do in the fight against breast cancer.”
The “biggest losers” will continue to accept pledges through to the end of June and welcome other members of the insurance industry to join in. If you are interested in weighing in your guess and $5 donation, contact Martin at 905-896-8181 or mmoran@cl-na.com.
