One Less Tear Gives away its 110,000th CD

March 1, 2007

The Navasky Foundation for Life hit a milestone on March 1st, 2007, as we gave away our 110,000th CD to a cancer patient.

The "One Less Tear" Cancer CD has been given as a gift to cancer patients and their families throughout the world. The Foundation was able to find different avenues of getting the CD into the hands of those who need it most by the great help of the "One Less Tear" Band, Donnie Van Zant & .38 Special, Kevin Sharp, Paul Rodgers, Jim Peterik, Ebay, ACS Cancer Relays, hospital visits and special cancer events across the nation.

Kevin Sharp, .38 Special, Paul Rodgers, Jim Peterik and the One Less Tear Band also gave away CDs to every person in attendance at many of their concerts since 2003.

Chuck Navasky and The Navasky Foundation for Life is grateful and proud of all who helped get the "One Less Tear" CD in the hands of those who suffer from this other form of terrorism.

This achievement has never been matched. Not even The Beatles, The Stones and Elvis combined have accomplished this!
