I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

EDITED TO ADD - 2.14.21:

2021 fundraising total of $2584.00! 

This brings my cumulative total for St. Baldrick’s 

up to $15,104.00 since 2016! 

Goal: achieved!

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! 

I love you all infinitely. So grateful for the unwavering support all these years! <3 


Friends, family, loved ones...

In 2021, I will be shaving my head once more—possibly for the last time for any number of years (if not *ever*). That being said, I plan on going out with a bang. I have a LOT of hair to shave off now so it’s going to be quite the drastic change...with a drastic fundraising goal to match. :) 

When I first started participating in 2016, I set out to raise 10K in three years and with all of your generous hearts, I *exceeded* that goal.

2016: $2,225.00

2017: $4,225.00

2018: $4,300.00

2019: $700.00

2020: $1,070.00

GRAND TOTAL OF $12,520.00 IN FIVE YEARS! <3

I’ll never be able to express my gratitude or describe how much this means to me. I mean, seriously...I know the most amazing people. Ever. That being said, my goal for the 2021 event is set at a permanent $2,480.00 (I turn 40 on November 5, 2020 so it seems fitting to go all out this year :). 

This is my *ultimate* goal. If I manage to raise $2,480.00, I will hit a grand total of $15,000.00 for St. Baldrick’s since I started actively fundraising in 2016. It would be a literal dream come true. $2,480 to go! Kind of a lofty goal for sure...but I’m here for it. :) <3

Listen...childhood cancer is an absolute beast.

Most of you already know I'm a a mom of five amazing children, one of whom is a Shaken Baby Syndrome Survivor. Due to her medically fragile condition, we tend to be "frequent flyers" at our local children's hospital and we've seen these unspeakably brave fighters firsthand, enduring things no child should *ever* have to endure. But did you also know that kids' cancers are different from adult cancers? It's true. And childhood cancer research is *extremely* underfunded (only 4% of federal government cancer research funding goes to children--FOUR PERCENT). Ugh. Four percent, you guys. I mean...only four percent? My heart can't reconcile that amount. It just can't.

Now I need your help! Will you please consider making a donation? Every single dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers. Please consider donating, and please spread the word...

Thanks for always having my back and supporting me. Y’all know how incredibly PUMPED I get when a new donation pops up. It’s an absolute privilege to “donate” my birthday to St. Baldrick’s. So many kids don’t get the chance to see their 40th year of life, you know? F*ck cancer, for really real. What a thief.

That being said, you all ROCK! Let’s *do* this!

With my love & gratitude to all,

Courtney <3 xo
