Family and Friends,
This year marks year 18 of our Bill & Joey's Excellent Shaving Event supporting St. Baldrick's in NYC!
Some people will shave their heads in solidarity with children who are fighting cancer. Others, like me, will volunteer their time and help the events success. Over 18 years, our event has raised $3,303,670. We've had 767 people shave their heads, numerous people, like Charli, have donated their hair. It takes everyone to help fight this disease... and it takes money. If you'd like to donate, any amount is appreciated.

Nobody fights alone!
