Eva Longoria Parker was in Miami today, September 12th, to formally announce that she will be returning for her second year as Rally's Honorary Chair. JR and Loren Ridinger, President/ CEO and Senior Vice President of Market America, will be joining Eva Longoria as Co-chairs for this annual event. The Rally for Kids with Cancer Scavenger Cup takes place November 12th and 13th, 2010 in Miami. Participants must each raise a minimum of $25,000 to enter their personal car and earn the chance to draft a Celebrity Navigator such as Eva Longoria Parker. The more funds you raise, the better draft position you earn during the Celebrity Navigator selection process. The event's goal is to raise much needed funds for children's cancer research, treatment and care. As Eva Longoria Parker stated, "Every child should have the chance to live a life free from pain and suffering, and enjoy a full and happy life." Eva's passion for kids with cancer was truly inspirational!
