I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Saved & Shaved

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Saved & Shaved

I have been a participant of St. Baldricks for years, and it's been something near and dear to my heart since a kid. My mom always saw it as a great cause and a free haircut (which still remains true). I now realize it is so much more than that. It's a way to portray hope.


Hope for the patients. Hope for the family. Hope for the future.


Ultimately, my hope is that everyone comes to learn in their head and their heart the love of Jesus Christ. This is why the group is named "Saved & Shaved." I recognize who God is, and I hope and pray that everyone will pursue a relationship with Him. That you all will live in the truth that you have been saved!


Much of my family has been afflicted with plenty of illness, cancer specifically, but God has been the ultimate healer and peacemaker in my life. He has healed my mind, my heart, and so much more that I can't begin to describe. My only want in this life on earth is that everyone comes to know Him the way that I have...


God bless you all
