News: Fighters Generously Donate Items For Leukemia Fundraiser

Stacey Noell-Wozniak, a 26-year-old wife and mother of two young daughters, was recently diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia and immediately underwent aggressive and intensive chemotherapy treatment. As a result, Stacey has been unable to work and subsequently has faced growing medical bills. In an effort to offset the high costs of treatment, CageReligion.com reached out to Stacey's family to help auction signed mixed martial arts memorabilia at a fundraiser in Warren, Michigan on Sunday, ultimately raising nearly $8,000.

A handful of the world's top mixed martial artists — including Jon Jones, Rashad Evans, Shane Carwin and Forrest Griffin — donated numerous signed items to the charity including signed shirts, photos and fight shorts.

 



Jen Wenk of Star PR Las Vegas donated items on behalf of Rashad Evans, Jorge Santiago and Melvin Guillard. Lani Alexander Carwin, wife of Shane Carwin, sent signed memorabilia directly from Shane and K-1 veteran Ray Sefo sent an Xtreme Couture shirt signed by gym's entire pro roster including Forrest Griffin, Ryan Couture, Jay Hieron, Tyson Griffin, Evan Dunham and Vinny Magalhaes among others.

"I don't know how to thank everyone," Stacey said following Sunday's event. "When I was first diagnosed with Leukemia, I felt so alone, even though I wasn't. And now I have such a warm feeling in my heart. Thank you everyone! I love you all!"
