The North American actress Jordan Van Vranken, who played the character 'Gangster Daughter' in the episode of the hit Nickelodeon original musical comedy series "Big Time Rush" called "Big Time Girl Group", has announced in the following press release, from PRNewswire, that she will be hosting her fourth Annual Bowl-A-Thon Saturday on 25th January 2014 to help raise money to support kids with cancer, specifically the children housed at Memphis' Ronald McDonald House who are being treated at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital!
A Memphis native who now resides in Los Angeles, Jordan created the Bowl-A-Thon event as a way to raise awareness and allow her Los Angeles-based friends and fellow actors and entertainers to participate in this very worthwhile cause.
Jordan is passionate about the mission at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Memphis Ronald McDonald House. She has been a volunteer for years and has been involved in the annual Radiothon in Memphis since she was a young girl, an event that has raised nearly $10 million dollars.

Van Vranken also continues to honor her long-time mentor and Ronald McDonald House supporter, legendary Memphis disc jockey John "Bad Dog" McCormack, who lost his own battle with cancer in 2011. "Bad Dog asked me to carry his torch....he was passionate about the St. Jude kids. I was always inspired and motivated by his example".
Jordan's fourth Annual Bowl-A-Thon will be held at Corbin Bowl in Tarzana, CA, January 25th. The event includes bowling, pizza, and raffles from various sponsors. Check out the Bowl-A-Thon and this year's event on Facebook at: http://www.facebook.com/messages/1384307178#!/events/304192446383902/
