Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care?
This year, I’m joining thousands of others to shave my head to raise money for childhood cancer research! Funding to the NIH is seriously threatened once again and it will have devastating consequences to cancer research and to any other medical research in the US as well. With all of the ugliness currently happening, I find myself wanting to do more and more to directly help people who are affect by our current research funding crisis. Participating in St. Baldrick's Fund Raiser is one of those ways.
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!
