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. 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.

I will be shaving head no matter what amount I raise. If I can raise $550 or more I will also shave off my sideburns. And, if I can raise over $1050, I will completely shave my head, sideburns, and my goatee… which I don’t really want to do, but if I can raise $1000 for kids cancer research by shaving it off, I will happily do it!

 
Together, let’s give these kids the lifetime they deserve. Thank you for your support!
