1. You’ll bring people together

Want to get to know your community? Nothing brings people together like watching their friends and neighbors go under the clippers! Bring your community together around an important cause while having a great time.

2.  You’ll make a kid with cancer smile

Our volunteer event organizers (VEOs) often invite kids with cancer, childhood cancer survivors, and families to share their stories and be celebrated. Organize an event and show those heroes some love! When you see them smile, you’ll know all your hard work was worth it.

3.  You’ll give kids with cancer hope

Thanks to St. Baldrick’s events and the funds they raise, researchers across the globe are making new leaps in the treatment of childhood cancers while giving kids and their families hope. By organizing a head-shaving event, you can be a part of progress toward cures for childhood cancer.
