10 Years of Crush Kids Cancer - New Project!

In Summer 2008, Crush Kids Cancer: David Archuleta's Angels was started by PecanPie as part of Stand Up 2 Cancer's fundraising campaign. Crush Kids Cancer soon became SU2C's top team, raising $95,949 in the last decade for Stand Up 2 Cancer. 

 As we approach this year's Stand Up 2 Cancer broadcast on September 7, Crush Kids Cancer is back with new products, this time to celebrate 10 years of fundraising! 

Sip your tea or coffee out of this new mug, all while celebrating 10 years of Crush Kids Cancer! 

Show your CKC pride by wearing one of our new 10-year anniversary buttons! Buttons come in round or square, perfect to decorate a denim jacket, add to that ongoing pin collection you have, or to pin onto your David tote bags! 

The cheapest and most lowkey of all our new products is our 10-year anniversary postcard. Send to your family or friends, release some postcards into the sky like David, or put it on your fridge to remind you of your part in celebrating 10 years of Crush Kids Cancer and helping us become and remain Stand Up 2 Cancer's top team!  

Not only that, but anyone who purchases one of these four 10-year anniversary products will be entered into a giveaway hosted by Ashley! You'll have the chance to win this signed photo of David (received by Ashley on February 27th at David's concert in Portland, Maine).

'Welcome Back, David' Crush Kids' Cancer's Mission

Crush Kids' Cancer: The Kids' Chapter is about to set out on our own mission just before David gets back from his!

In case you haven't heard, David is due to come home from his mission at the end of this month. The Kids' Chapter has decided that as a Welcome Back present for David, we're about to begin our own fundraising mission! Starting Monday, March 17, 2014, our goal is to get as many donations to Crush Kids' Cancer: David Archuleta's Angels as possible. This project will run until April 1, 2014 and we will announce the total amount that was raised, as well as let David know about this wonderful Welcome Back gift from all of his fans!

To donate, go HERE and click Donate To This Team. Remember, no amount is too small! And if you aren't able to donate, you can always simply help us spread the word about this new project! We appreciate all forms of support! :)

Crush Kids' Cancer: The Kids' Chapter's David Archuleta Christmas/Birthday Project

The Kids' Chapter:

Crush Kids' Cancer: The Kids' Chapter's David Archuleta Christmas/Birthday Project

With the holidays and David Archuleta's birthday nearing, The Kids' Chapter is starting our Christmas/Birthday Project!

Starting now until the end of the year, you have the chance to purchase this special Crush Kids' Cancer ornament! A portion of the proceeds from this ornament will be donated to Crush Kids' Cancer as our Christmas and Birthday present to David this year!

The ornament is $12 and will hang nicely on every Archie's Christmas tree, or could be a great stocking stuffer! If you do not celebrate Christmas but still want to be a part of this project, you can always purchase an ornament and give it to someone you know will love it, or donate it to a local hospital, etc.

Project starts Nov 1 until Dec 31, 2012, and at the end we will be letting David know how many ornaments sold and how much was raised for Crush Kids' Cancer! We know David will love this Christmas/Birthday present from all of his fans this year!

You can go HERE to purchase a Crush Kids' Cancer ornament.

It's the season of giving (and celebrating David's birthday) and The Kids' Chapter is excited for this new end-of-the-year, holiday project!

David to release OPM album!

MYX PH:

David Archuleta to Release an All-OPM Album!

MYXph sat down with American Idol Season 7 runner-up David Archuleta to talk about recording an all-OPM album, meeting OPM royalties, acting, his 2-year mission, and Lea Salonga.

David Archuleta, who's currently in the country to film a mini-series, has a jam-packed schedule. Prior to the interview, the affable singer had a late night working on a "fun Philippine project" his Filipino fans -- an all OPM album!

"This is a project that came about quite suddenly. It wasn't really planned out, but while I was here filming Nandito Ako, it just came about and came into work and we just figured it would be a great gift for the Filipinos fans to go alongside everything that has been going on."

"Since I'll be leaving for a couple of years, it just seems like something really fun and special to give, he added. "And the songs, I think, not just Filipinos would enjoy but fans elsewhere would really like because the songs tend to be really heartfelt, emotional, and you can really sing them, and so I think my other fans would really enjoy listening to them as well."

When asked about the difficulties of recording the Tagalog song, Nandito Ako (originally sung by Ogie Alcasid, also included on the album), Archie said that it wasn't as hard as he thought it would be. To prepare, he shared, "I just made sure to listen to the original version by Ogie [Alcasid] a lot. Over and over and over and over, just to make sure that I'm understanding what was being said."

Incidentally, Archie got to meet Ogie, with his wife Regine Velasquez.

"It was great! I loved getting to meet both of them. They were so nice. It was just fun getting to hang out with them. They even sang together a little bit which was really fun. Just very good people," he quipped. "I know that they're both very respected names here in the Philippines, so just being able to meet them and see how simple they were..."

Apart from Ogie and Regine, he also got to work with record producers Jay Durias and Jimmy Antiporda on his OPM album! When asked for his favorite track on the album, Archie simply replied, "I like keeping surprises." Though he did drop some hints.

A secret project, you say?

I guess we'll have to wait and see! ;)
