Event Details

Can you believe it's our 10th year already!?! Thank you for all of your hard work and support this year and over the 9 years past!

Unfortunately, we must do a Virtual Head-shaving Event again this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic but that isn't going to stop us from doing what we do. The whole reason we raise the money we raise is to help save kids' lives. Much too important to let something like COVID stop us!

The big party at Jimmy's WILL happen! We just don't know when yet. All future updates for the big party can be found at the Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/socohatescancer/ VIRTUAL SHAVES: Virtual Shave Day will be Saturday, March 20th, 2021. Shavee's are encouraged to participate in a virtual shave. Create a video (or photos) of you shaving your head. Then just upload it to the Facebook page. You can also post pictures as well if you would like to.

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 Foundation continues to make great strides in funding very important new research and treatments that will continue to save more and more lives. There is still a lot to do.

We have quite a few Honored Kids this year. They are all awesome kids who have had to go through a horrible fight with cancer. Something no kid should ever have to experience. Every single one of them is depending on us to raise as much as we can to fund the much-needed research that will put an end to the horrific childhood cancers they are battling.

Justin has been one of our Honored Kids since we began doing this ten years ago. And, he always will be. Justin lost his battle and became an angel in 2014 but he will continue to be one of our Honored Kids every year because that is exactly why we are doing this, to put a stop to losing kids to horrific cancers. Go to YouTube and search for "Justin Miller Ninja." THAT is why we do what we do! Rest easy Justin, you were an absolutely awesome young man!

In the last 9 years, this awesome event has raised well over $100,000! $60,000 was raised in 2019 alone. Many thanks to everyone that worked so hard to make that a reality!

We won't stop until cures have been found for all childhood cancers. Many advances have been made but there is still a lot of work to be done. Sign up now by clicking the "join us" button. It only takes 30 seconds to complete. If you have participated in the past, just log in to your account and update your event to this new one. Make sure you list your T-shirt size. Everyone who raises at least $50 will win a free commemorative T-shirt. We would like to have a team from each school. If you have a child who wants to participate, and their school doesn't have a team yet, form a team and invite their friends to join.

If someone doesn't want to shave their head, that's okay. They can still sign up as a Volunteer instead of a Shavee and still raise money for their team. Your friends and family from out-of-state can even join your team or start their own associated with this event. If they can't make it the day of the event, they can be a "Virtual Shavee" and have their head shaved at their local barber.

Since 2007, as part of the St. Baldrick’s Chicago Area Schools Challenge, local students, faculty, and their communities have united to Conquer Childhood Cancers, shaving more than 32,000 heads in solidarity with kids who typically lose their hair during childhood cancer treatment. In that time, they have raised more than $14.4 million for childhood cancer research - but that is just a drop in the bucket of what is needed to win this battle.

Local schools in Southern Colorado are coming together to replicate this awesome feat! If your school hasn't set up a team yet, do it today. The school that raises the most will have the traveling trophy for the coming year. In 2019, Centennial High School earned the trophy! They have it on display for all to see in their trophy case at this time.

A HUGE thank you to YOU for being a part of such an awesome community group! Let's do this!
