Nickelback Accepts BC Charity Challenge

Thu, 08 Dec 2011 16:55:00 -0800

Chilliwack band Pardon My Striptease, who penned a song for cancer-stricken one-year-old Lilee-Jean Putt, has found a place on the iTunes Rock singles chart just behind province-mates Nickelback and have issued a challenge through local media for the international hitmakers to match funds raised through their charity single, "Pray (For L.J.)". Nickelback has answered the challenge and now calls upon the media to do the same.

re moved by the efforts of Pardon My Striptease to raise money for B.C. Childrens Hospital and are happy and excited to take part. As such, Nickelback will be donating $50,000 to the BC Children's Hospital and we invite both the Vancouver Province and the Vancouver Sun to each join with us and match our pledge, says Chad Kroeger on behalf of the band. Being in our own backyard, the story of Lilee-Jean Putt's fight really hit home. We applaud the The Sun and The Province, which have been invaluable in spreading the word and bringing the challenge to our attention and hope they'll demonstrate the same enthusiasm by each matching our donation in this urgently needed and great local cause!"

"But, most importantly," continues Kroeger, "we don't want anyone to lose sight of what this is really about. This is about helping Lilee-Jean Putt and so many other children receiving world class care at our own BC Children's Hospital. We are hopeful others will join us." The song Pray [for L.J.] is available now on iTunes and further information on donating can be found at loveforlilee.com.

Nickelback Teams Up With United Way for Annual Thansgiving Halftime Show

Tue, 15 Nov 2011 19:25:00 -0800

Nickelback will take the stage for the 2011 United Way Thanksgiving Halftime Show during the first game of the NFL's tripleheader when the Detroit Lions host the Green Bay Packers at 12:30 p.m. ET. The game and halftime show will be broadcast live on FOX.

"We are honored to perform at the United Way halftime show on Thanksgiving Day," commented Chad Kroeger of Nickelback. "We always love playing in Detroit, our fans there have been tremendously supportive of us through the years and we can't wait to come back and celebrate an exciting day for the Lions and the city of Detroit.

"In addition, American Idol Season 10 runner-up Lauren Alaina will kick off the game in Detroit with the national anthem. She will be joined by PLAY 60 youth ambassadors from the NFL Youth Education Town -- Boys & Girls Club at the Dick & Sandy Dauch Campus in Detroit, a United Way agency. The PLAY 60 youth ambassadors will then help form the fan tunnel during player introductions.

The halftime show, highlighted by Nickelback's performance, aims to inspire viewers to LIVE UNITED, United Way's call to the public to get involved in the community by focusing on the building blocks of life: education, income and health. Now in its 38th year, the United Way/NFL partnership connects NFL PLAY 60 with United Way's 2018 goal to get 1.9 million more young people healthy and active.

Designed to tackle childhood obesity, NFL PLAY 60 brings together the NFL's long-standing commitment to health and wellness with partner organizations like United Way. PLAY 60 is also implemented locally, as part of the NFL's in-school, after-school and team-based programs. Since the program was launched in 2007, the NFL has committed more than $250 million to youth health and fitness through programming, grants, and media time for public service announcements. The NFL and its teams have built more than 100 NFL Youth Fitness Zones and organized more than 1,500 PLAY 60 youth events since the campaign launched.

"We're grateful to Nickelback for donating their time and resources to the United Way Thanksgiving Halftime Show," said Tracey Holmes, NFL partnership director at United Way Worldwide. "Nickelback is demonstrating how they LIVE UNITED by giving something back during the holiday season.

"This is the 13th year that United Way has worked with the NFL on the Thanksgiving Halftime Show to inspire NFL fans across the country to get engaged in their communities. Previous performers at the Thanksgiving Day Halftime Show have included Detroit-native Kid Rock, Mariah Carey, Bon Jovi, Mary J. Blige, John Mellencamp, Enrique Iglesias and the Goo Goo Dolls. It takes hundreds of people from throughout southeastern Michigan volunteering their time and talents to deliver the 10-minute show, which is produced annually by sports/entertainment company e2k.
