Looking for the perfect St. Patrick’s Day activity or event? What about one that helps kids with cancer?
Then you’re in the right place.
We’re the St. Baldrick’s Foundation – yes that’s right, St. BALDrick’s – the leading private funder of childhood cancer research and home of the head-shaving event. We got our start on March 17, 2000, when three friends turned their annual reinsurance industry’s St. Patrick’s Day party into a fundraiser for kids with cancer, shaving 19 heads bald and raising $104,000 for the cause.
Today, people all over the world embrace this crazy idea of shaving heads to raise money for childhood cancer research, and they do it with flair.
Intrigued? We hope so.
With more than 700 events taking place this March, there’s bound to the perfect one for your very own St. Patrick’s celebration:
