You can be a hero for kids with cancer! Join us after school on October 2nd, for our 2nd annual Team Pippa & the BALD Eagles head shaving event! Pippa is in Mrs. Hopper's first grade class and is currently receiving chemotherapy that makes her lose her hair. You can help raise awareness and funding for childhood cancer research by signing up to have your head shaved on October 2nd! If shaving your head isn't your thing, don't worry! There are a few different ways you can show your support for Pippa and other children fighting cancer. Sign up in advance to shave your head
here! The second half of the event will be open for day of participants.
1.)
Sign up to get your head shaved at the event! We have 2 professional barbers that will be there to shave heads! (recommended donation: $10)
2.) Donate to make a bracelet during the event (beads and elastic will be provided recommended donation between $2- $5)
3.) Enter the Childhood Cancer Awareness Ribbon coloring contest (recommended donation is $1.00). September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month, so during the remainder of the month, we will have ribbons to color and decorate on your own time. You can get as creative as you'd like with these! All ribbons will be due the morning of October 2nd so the winner can be announced after school at the event.
We take pride in the "give-back-whenever-you-can" spirit that our Swigert community embraces. All proceeds from the event will go to St. Baldrick's. Our event will speed the search for cures, supporting the largest charity funder of childhood cancer research grants. Research is hope, and you can give kids that hope.
Sign up to shave your head, to raise money another way, or just come show your support by being there with a smile and encouragement for Pippa, the bravest girl with biggest heart and her incredible family.
