TMC, a division of C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc is pleased to announce our new partnership with Greg Olsen and Receptions for Research, a foundation focused on providing hospitals, doctors and researchers with necessary resources to save those affected by cancer.  In 2009, Greg and members of his family started Receptions for Research in honor of Greg’s mother Susan, who is now an eight-year breast cancer survivor.

Please join Greg Olsen (of the Chicago Bears) and C.H. Robinson as we host our annual Kicks for a Cure Kickball Tournament held on Chicago’s lakefront in Grant Park on Saturday, July 10, 2010.

There are several ways you can get involved:

• Donate products. Our players will need juice, water, snacks, and more. This event requires a small-scale supply chain!
• Get a team together and play. Each team must raise a small amount of money to participate, but these amounts add up quickly to make a big impact. To sign up, visit the Kicks for a Cure  website.
• Volunteer your time. Securing individuals to referee games is our biggest challenge, but refereeing is an easy way for you to contribute—and you might even get to referee NFL pros!
• Purchase a day pass. If you don't want to play but would like to be a spectator, you can purchase an individual day pass or a group of day passes.
• Donate money to the cause. Every donation counts, big or small. Donate Now
• Spread the word. Encourage your friends, family, and colleagues to participate in the event and direct them to our Facebook page and the Greg Olsen video on YouTube.
