Every 3½ minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer. Every 4 hours a child loses their life.
In order to help fund childhood cancer research Darlene Poblano and Heather Polyard will be shaving their heads. We ask that you come and support us! There are three ways you can help, be a shavee with us, donate money, or be there to support us as we "take it all off... our hair that is".
As an extra way to convince you all into coming and ...supporting us; this is Heather's birthday... and she asks that you come help her celebrate her big 21st by supporting her in raising funds for childhood cancer research. She also asks that instead of getting a gift you donate the money you would've spent to St. Baldricks instead.

Your support means a lot to us and we hope you can join us for a celebration of life!

A little more about St . Baldricks:
St. Baldrick’s organizes events where volunteers shave their heads to stand in solidarity with kids fighting cancer. St. Baldrick’s is proof that one person, one shaved head or even one dollar can make a difference in the fight against childhood cancer. Each year 160,000 children worldwide are diagnosed with cancer. About one in 300 boys and one in 333 girls will develop cancer before their 20th birthday. In the United States, childhood cancer kills more children than any other disease – more than AIDS, asthma, diabetes, cystic fibrosis and congenital combined. With the money we raise The St. Baldrick’s Foundation provides grants to over 230 institutions for laboratory research and to help make clinical trials available to more children than ever, giving those children treatment that offers the best chance for a cure and long-term survival.
