Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care?
A challenge among friends 25 years ago has become the largest volunteer movement to Conquer Kids' Cancer. Last year was the first year I chose to shave my head and raise money for childhood cancer in honor of my Grandpa Brent who I never got to meet because he died from angiosarcoma. This year, my Aunt Morgan battled cancer and fought hard through surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation and is currently in remission. This year I am joining thousands of others again 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.
Pediatric cancer is devastatingly underfunded. 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!
