The stories of 134 children can be found within the "honored kids" section of our event page. We dedicate our event to them and their families. These children are battling or have battled some form of childhood cancer and they are either from SC or have SC ties. We rejoice for the 96 that survived and I dedicate my personal participation as a shavee to the 38 that left us much too soon. I pledge to never forget them nor why we do this.

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.

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