$4 Million

Could you imagine having 400,000,000 pennies? Now that truly is a pot of gold, and as of Saturday, February 27, St. Baldrick's has raised just that to keep funding childhood cancer research programs! We are proud to say that we have raised $4 million more than a week earlier than we did in 2009.  In addition to raising $4 million we have 16,000 shavees registered at 565 events in 43 states and 6 countries! Congratulations and big thank-you's to everyone that's been involved!

Ty and his golden lab would also like to take the time to thank everyone for their hard work and dedication to the cause.  Ty was recently featured on Fox 12 Idaho in a story entitled 'Mountain Home Teen Cancer Survivor Beats The Odds.'  As you can see, Ty is now sporting a full head of hair and is excited about attending his local event at the Knitting Factory Concert House in Boise, ID on March 13. 

To make 2010 our biggest year yet, we need more than 40,000 shavees, so everyone is encouraged to do their part to support the cause.  To locate or organize an event in your community, sign-up to shave, donate, or volunteer, visit www.StBaldricks.org.  You can also become a Fan on Facebook, follow @StBaldricks on Twitter and visit the St. Baldrick's YouTube Channel.
