Downtown Roseville on February 24th
Roseville, Calif. – What do tattoos have in common with sick and injured children? A lot, it turns out, when Wild Bill's Tattoo parlor hosts its annual Tattoo-a-Thon.
The event will take place on Saturday, Feb. 24, from 8 a.m. to midnight at Wild Bill's Tattoo in Roseville. Thirty tattoo artists have volunteered to tattoo customers for 16 hours during this year's fundraiser and all proceeds from their work – including tips – will be donated to the UC Davis Pediatric and Cardiac Intensive Care Unit.
"We are incredibly grateful to Wild Bill and the artists who support this event," said Michelle Tafoya, senior director of development at UC Davis Children's Hospital.
"Wild Bill has a heart of gold, and his generous support is used to help our hospital teams treat our most critically ill and injured infants and children."
