Join the Cristian Rivera Foundation on Saturday December 3 for the first-ever Cristian Rivera Foundation Paintball Fundraiser. All of the proceeds raised will go to the Cristian Rivera Foundation, which funds research into the cure for a rare brain stem tumor known as DIPG. Fifteen teams will face off from 8am to 12 noon, all with the common goal of saving the 200 young children diagnosed with DIPG in the United States every year. Cristian Rivera Foundation Committee Member Robert Vazquez organized the event, held at NYC Paintball, located at 47-11 Van Dam Street in Long Island City. The first-ever Cristian Rivera Foundation Paintball Fundraiser costs $75 per person ($375 per team of five), including the gun, protective equipment, facilities and unlimited paintballs. Remember, there are only five people per team, so secure your spot today. Please visit http://cristianriverafoundation.org/events.html or call 212-779-2222 to sign up.
