I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I'm Shaved Now!


THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE DONATED!


DONATIONS ARE STILL NEEDED FOR ME TO REACH MY GOAL!


IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO DONATE!


Why am I shaving my head with St. Baldrick's? 

* Because your donation "on my head" will save lives.


A challenge among friends 25 years ago has become the largest volunteer movement to Conquer Kids’ Cancer. This year, I’m joining thousands of others to shave my head to raise money for childhood cancer research!

Did you know, 1 in 5 kids diagnosed with cancer in the U.S. won’t survive? For those who do, more than 96% have severe or life-threatening conditions by the time they are 50.

Each shaved head, every dollar donated, creates a ripple effect of progress for kids with cancer.

Once again, I am doing a Solo Shave this year. This will be my 8th year shaving and raising funds for the St. Baldrick's Foundation. Thanks to everyone who has donated in the past years. My brother-in-law will be shaving my head on Sunday, May 18th at 4 p.m.


Now I need your support! Your donation will fund research to help kids survive and thrive. Every donation, small or large, will make a difference. Can you help? I thank you in advance for your support.


Your gift will give kids and their families hope, supporting the best research across the country, through the largest charity funder of childhood cancer research grants, the St. Baldrick’s Foundation.

Together, let’s give these kids the lifetime they deserve. Please contact me if you wish to donate by cash or check. Thank you for your support!
