Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care? 

I have a good friend and fellow hockey player who had been doing this for years. I alway admired him for doing it and when I got an invite to do it, I jumped at the  chance to shave my head. This is my second year doing year doing this and I apologize for being late. Those who know me, know that I had my only little battle with skin cancer on top of my head.  I'm still planning on particapating and any donation with help this young. children. 

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!
