2nd annual Monroe’s ‘Shave for the Brave’ for Childhood Cancer Research

Be a hero for kids with cancer!

This year, as we did last year, we invite you to experience the ways St. Baldrick’s, with your support, is making a difference in the battle to cure kids’ cancer. On behalf of the Foundation, , we would value your participation at our event.

Worldwide, 160,000 children are diagnosed with cancereach year and despite tremendous progress, cancer remains the #1 disease killer of children in the U.S. and Canada. The St. Baldrick’s Foundation raises funds for childhood cancer research by hosting worldwide head-shaving events, where volunteers shave their heads inpublic to show solidarity with the children who typically lose their hair during treatments. These “shavees” receive pledges of financial support from their friends and family. In turn their generous donations help fund life-saving childhood cancer research.

St. Baldrick’s events have provided more than $285 million in research grants to enable doctors and scientists at over 374 institutions to pursue the most promising new cures for childhood cancer and to help make clinical trials available to more children than ever. Since 2000, St. Baldrick’s has hosted more than 2,000 head-shaving events, shaving more than 107,000 heads in 29 countries and 50 U.S. states.

We hope you can join us as a “shavee,” at the Knights of Columbus Hall on May 4, 2019. Each shavee collects donations from their friends and family to support the cause. Believe it or not, people will give generously to see you sacrifice your hair. If you can’t be a shavee, donate to a shavee or volunteer for our event! We'll have plenty of raffles and things to do for the kids. And hopefully lots of surprises to be announced in the near future. Whiskey Jacks BBQ and Vince's on -the-go will be in the parking lot to serve attendees.

If you have been touched by a child with cancer, then you know they lose not only their hair but precious years from their childhood, and sometimes their lives. Together we can support this vital research and give our children back their dreams.

The St. Baldrick's Foundation is a volunteer-powered charity that funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. government.

Get involved and you'll be giving hope to infants, children, teens and young adults fighting childhood cancers!
