Rockville Centre- Parish Center 2021-VIRTUAL Event
So this year more than ever we need your help to help raise funds and find a cure for each and every childhood cancer. So in Rockville Centre we will once again hold a virtual event throughout the year. The event will be open for the entire year. So how can you help? Please come back and be a shavee or a ponytail chopper. If you know anyone who braved the shave or chopped their ponytail in the past, please ask them to come back home this year and shave or chop again. Please actively recruit others to become Shavees . Please follow up with all your supporters from prior years and ask them to support your efforts and the Foundation this year. If head shaving or donating your ponytail is not for you, please get involved with our “Do what you want” DWYW fundraising programs. Run a race, have a bake sale, hold a garage sale, be creative, bring your interests and talents to our mission. You can still sign up on our RVC event web page as a participant to fundraise and keep your hair. Let's aim high and reach this year's RVC goal of $350,000. All of these efforts will allow the foundation to pick up the funding of life saving research for childhood cancer. A very important endeavor that today more than ever needs a major boost after the pandemic had such a major negative impact on the Foundation's ability to fund important scientific grants during the 2020 drive.
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!
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.
