I am shaving to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Friends of Gentry #stillGentryStrong

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


This year (2027) marks TEN YEARS since Gentry's diagnosis; as her mom, I absolutely can't believe it! It's been 9 years since I've held her, heard her voice, or been able to continue to fight this beast of pediatric cancer while she was with me.

On December 20, 2017, Gentry was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Potine Glioma, a "rare" (if you're from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, you know this is NOT a rare occurance) pediatric brain tumor. This inoperable brain tumor, located within the pons/brainstem/and inner workings of the brain is a fatal diagnosis for children and families. This grim prognosis has not seen an advancement in treatment protocol in 55 years! There is still only a less than 1% survival rate-- THAT IS NOT OKAY!

After losing my daughter Gentry, I swore that I would do anything to bring awareness and help parents who are fighting WITH their kids through cancer. I can’t personally fund research, but I can grow some hair! Fundraising to shave my head is a way to share awareness AND fund much needed research and grants for childhood cancer!

Kids with cancer need our support now more than ever. St. Baldrick’s is the largest non-government funder of childhood cancer research grants, and the pandemic has slashed donations, slowing down the progress to find cures.

Cancer kills more of our kids than any other disease. Research can change that, and I don’t want to let these kids down. Can you help? Thank you so much!

Research is hope for kids with cancer, but donations to find cures have been down since 2020.

Your gift will give kids hope, supporting the best research across the country, through the largest charitable funder of childhood cancer research grants.

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? I didn't until my Gentry became a statistic. 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!
