Chambers' Charity
Dolphins wide receiver Chris Chambers is joining IceLink Watch’s 10 charities in 10 cities in 10 months campaign. Chambers is serving as the celebrity spokesperson this month for the company’s charity links bracelet campaign to benefit the Ronald McDonald House of Miami.
The company is partnering with La Scala Jewelers and other stores and will donate a percentage of national sales of its bicycle bracelet line – it is featuring the new red bracelet this month – in December to benefit the Miami charity, which provides housing for families of seriously ill children being treated at local hospitals.
Chambers joins a variety of celebrities, including Xzibit; Tampa Bay Buccaneer Cadillac Williams; boxers Vernon Forrest and Bernard Hopkins; and Houston Rocket Juwan Howard, who were each featured for one month of the campaign that has benefited the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation in Las Vegas, the Boy & Girls Club in Philadelphia, and the Detroit Youth Foundation, among others.
Chambers is scheduled to make an appearance on behalf of the campaign at 3 p.m. Tuesday at La Scala Jewelers, 930 Ocean Drive, Miami Beach, where he will discuss the campaign, greet fans and sign autographs.
