Pittsburgh’s Main Event - March 16th 2024

Join us to have some fun – and be a hero for kids with cancer!
Come be a part of the 25th year of St. Baldrick’s volunteers working to Conquer Kids’ Cancer!
You’ll be giving hope to thousands of kids diagnosed with cancer every day – from babies and toddlers to children, teens and young adults. In fact, you’ll be saving lives!
One of our local, honored kids is Brooks Murphy aka Brooks the Brave.   At just 5 years old, he was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma in November, a rare cancer found in the adrenal glands.  Since his diagnosis, they have learned that it has spread to his bone marrow.  He is currently courageously battling, and we are all supporting him!

Another of our local and honored kids is Brigid.  At 18-months old, Brigid presented symptoms of croup cough. Four days later, we were given diagnosis of T-cell lymphoma. As part of treatment, Brigid was on an experimental pharmaceutical pediatric cancer drug trial due to shock from typical chemo drug. She lost hair and appetite resulting in tube feeds for nutrition. She rang the bell in late September 2022. Labor Day weekend of 2023, Brigid began complaining of lower back pain. Mid September 2023, biopsy revealed mature B-cell leukemia (very rare in pediatric patients). At 5-years old, she had her second cancer diagnosis. Treatment is ongoing with 3+ months of living at Children’s Hospital. Brigid is in a current immunotherapy treatment to hopefully remain in remission.

Our event will speed the search for cures through St. Baldrick’s, the largest charity funder of childhood cancer research grants.
Sign up to shave your head or to raise money another way. Can’t join us? Please make a generous donation to give kids the long, healthy lives they deserve.
You can accelerate the next 25 years of cures for kids with cancer!

St. Baldrick’s Honored Kids

Kids with cancer are our reason for it all. They’re the inspiration behind our event and the reason we’re helping fund childhood cancer research. We believe all kids should be able to grow up and turn their dreams into realities. Join our event or make a donation, and click the photos below to read their incredible stories.
