ECCW Entertainment is holding a wrestling event — Hulk Up To Beat Cancer — on August 7 to help raise funds for the family of Sam Donovan, a five year old suffering from leukaemia.

Donovan was first diagnosed on July 6, 2014 and her family had to leave their Kamloops home for eight months while she received treatment.

She was free of the cancer in January but it has since returned, requiring a bone marrow transplant. The family has leased their house to pay the bills, but there are still expenses that Hulk Up To Beat Cancer is hoping to help with.

The wrestling event will take place in Port Coquitlam at the Elks Hall (2272 Leigh Square). A bake sale will be held outside at 5:30 p.m., while the doors open for the wrestling event at 7:30 p.m., with bell time at 8 p.m. All tickets are $16 and all of the proceeds will go to the Donovan family.
