Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care?
This year: 2026
I shave in memory of Isabella Auer.
Isabella died from DIPG,incurable brain tumor, @ the age of 17.
I shave in honor of Natalie, and Ava, both 5, who both have cancer.
I also shave in honor of Jack Droste, very talented student
I have come to know over the last 4 yrs.
Your dollars, can make the difference in better treatments and possible cures.
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, trimmed hair, 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!
