The mission of the St. Baldrick's Foundation is to raise awareness and funds to cure childhood cancer. Participants shave their heads in exchange for donations towards research. It is a simple concept, a fun time and a very effective fundraiser - since its founding in 2000, the St. Baldrick's Foundation has raised $34 million with headshavings in 18 countries.
In 2005, we created TeamBrent, to honor our son Brent by fighting cancer alongside him. Over the past three years TeamBrent has shaved over 500 heads and raised $767 thousand for childhood cancers everywhere through its participation in St Baldrick's. Let's continue to make a difference and have some fun while we do it. JOIN US
This year's event will be held on Thursday March 13th at the Bear & Grill (Fairfield). The event will be very family friendly from 5-7. It will begin at 5 with a live remote from 95.9 the Fox radio, head shaving by the Total Look Salons and Academy, and "head painting" by www.CTFaceArt.com. We will stop shaving at 7:30pm for speeches MC'd by sportscaster Deb Kaufman. Shaving and head painting will start up again after the speeches, with music and dancing by Vertigo. A guaranteed good time! Sign up to shave or just come watch.
Local business owners of Children of the Sound, Keough's Hardware, the Nauti Dolphin, the Little Gym of Fairfield, along with the Sacred Heart University Hockey team; the Fairfield Firefighters Local 1426; and many more area residents have already signed up to shave their heads for the cause.
