Join us for our 6th Annual St. Baldrick's event! ! ! Come see what all of the “buzz” is about as Salon Christopher Shaves the Way to Conquer Kids’ Cancer!
Who: Our area communities participating in support of Amey DiSisto, Leah Nepa, Ryan C., and in memory of Arden Quinn, Brave Eli, Derek Schnapp, Jesenia, Taylor Buonadonna, and all the SuperKids who have bravely battled childhood cancer and are forever in our hearts! In memory of all the young lives lost to childhood cancer, and in support of all of the Superkids battling this disease, we would like to honor them by starting an Honor Board at our event. Please bring with you to the event your favorite photograph of the person you are honoring to be put placed on the board that will be proudly hanging at the event for all to see. 5x7 or smaller photos would be recommended so that all can be honored.
What: St. Baldrick’s Head-Shaving Event (a sign of solidarity with kids who have cancer and typically lose their hair during treatment)
Where: McFadden’s Ballpark | One Citizens Bank Way, Philadelphia, PA 19148
When: Saturday, March 10 | 6-9pm
Why: Be a hero for kids with cancer! Join this St. Baldrick's event, and whether you decide to shave your head, volunteer, or donate, we hope you'll be a part of the excitement. The St. Baldrick's Foundation is a volunteer-driven 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.
