Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care?
There are moments when life is scary and unpredictable no matter how well we plan. At times like these I look back a the times I volunteered at The KY Cancer Society's " Camp Indian Summer". The kids attending were a great inspiration for what Strength and Fearlessness looks like. I aways wanted to be like them. 

Next month I will be leaving my employer of over 25 years to start a new chapter in my life. I came into this job with hair down to my belt. It's length has ebbed and flow some but mostly on the long side. Why not start off with a new look and honor those youngsters who have given so much to me when I was starting on another path 35 years ago.  

  
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.

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. Thank you for your support!
