I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Makayla's Minions

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Makayla's Minions

I'm shaving my head in honor of Makayla to raise money for childhood cancer research! Makayla was 3 years old when she was diagnosed with ALL (Acute lymphoblastic leukemia) and while she is doing amazing currently, she is still on daily chemo, bi-monthly appointments, and is restricted in her activities. Over 2 years of treatment is required to treat leukemia, and that's just A LOT. By the time she's done, more than half of her life she will have spent on chemotherapy. I'm ready for a change, and not just to my hair! So at the end of the month, I'll be shaving my head, in honor of Makayla, and to raise much needed funds for research. Please join us, donate, and share!

 Did you know that kids' cancers are different from adult cancers? It's true. And childhood cancer research is extremely underfunded. So I decided to do something about it by raising money for cures.

Now I need your help! Will you make a donation? Every dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers.
