I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research
Hello my name is Alex Kavounas, I'm 17 years old and a senior in high school. I'm shaving my head this year in honor of my little sister who has an extremely rare form of cancer called Paraganglioma. She has been fighting health issues her whole life and is the strongest person I will ever know. Her name is Melissa, and is currently undergoing radiation treatment at C.H.O.P.
