Wow!!! Kimberly Fowler, YAS Fitness Centers, the riders, volunteers, sponsors, and donors made a difference in the fight against cancer at the 4th Annual YAS-A-THON for ThinkCure! This year’s YAS-A-THON raised $185, 000! – Venice Paparazzi | Venice Beach CA, Photo Agency, Community Info, News, Events

“As a cancer survivor, this charity is close to my heart,” says YAS Founder Kimberly Fowler. “Last year, we raised over $200,000 to further the research that saved my life.”

More than 11.1 million cancer survivors living in the U.S. prove how vital this research is, and because of non-profits like ThinkCure! the futures of children diagnosed with cancer are even brighter. Thirty years ago, about half of children with cancer were lost, but today, 90% are cured! “The entire team at ThinkCure! is excited to celebrate our forth annual YAS-a-Thon!” says Frank McCourt, Chairman of ThinkCure! “The continued support from Kimberly and her YAS studios, both as a contributing board member and as one of our top fundraisers, has furthered the ThinkCure! mission to fund innovative research in collaboration with CHLA and City of Hope. Engaging local community leaders like Kimberly in funding research is what ThinkCure! is all about.”

“The money that the YAS team raises goes directly to funding cutting edge research projects focused on new, effective treatments for a range of cancers including brain cancer, leukemia, and lymphoma.”

The YAS-A-Thon events included a silent auction on June 22nd and a 3 hour YAS-A-THON – spinning on June 23rd. Riders included YAS founder Kimberly Fowler, Sherri Rosen, City Councilmember Mike Bonin, Daniel Samakow (Danny’s, James Beach and the Canal Club), Yas instructors Amy Horwitch, Myrna Gaardsmoe, and many more.
