Genaro Hernandez - California Event!!!

From everyone at the "WBC LEGENDS OF BOXING MUSEUM," We wish you a...Happy, Healthy and Fun 2009!

We hope you were good and got everything you wanted for Christmas and brought in the New Year in celebratory style. We wish everyone the best as we all embark on a new year with new plans, visions and goals. May the New Year bring you happiness and success!

As we enter the New Year we ask that you don't forget about our friend and champion, Genaro "Chicanito" Hernandez. Genaro was diagnosed two months ago with a very rare cancer that has spread rapidly. Since his insurance carrier is refusing to cover all his needed treatments, the WBC is asking you to join us this month and help support our champion in his special time of need.

On January 17, 2009 the WBC Legends of Boxing Museum located at the American Sports University in San Bernardino, CA will host a dinner party in Chicanito's honor. An evening full of entertainment will be provided, along with a silent auction for your enjoyment. The auction will feature rare autographed gloves, statues and other prized items from the world of boxing not normally available for purchase.

WBCares' Ms. Jill Diamond and WBC Legends of Boxing Museum Chairman Dr. Rudy Tellez will spearhead the event that will feature guest speakers; WBC President Dr. Jose Sulaiman, WBC Super Bantamweight Champion Israel Vazquez and WBC Continental Americas & NABF Heavyweight Champion Chris "The Nightmare" Arreola amongst others.

Please purchase your tickets in advance, as we have limited space available. If you want to participate, but are unable to attend, please send your generous donations to the following address. All donations will be greatly appreciated and 100% of the money goes to the Hernandez family. On behalf of everyone at the museum, we thank you in advance for supporting Genaro and his family in this tough time
