"I'm shaving my head to raise money for childhood cancer research! Did you know that kids' cancers are different from adult cancers? It's true. And childhood cancer research is extremely underfunded. So I decided to do something about it by raising money for cures. Now I need your help! Will you make a donation? Every dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers." - Default Message
"The little cousin of one of my best friends developed a form of cancer when we were in high school. A bunch of us wore these turquoise bracelets his family ordered in support. He never asked me to join in the vent or hounded me for donations (as I can remember). Last year I found out he was coming home for the event, which happened to be during my spring break. I missed my friend and wanted to participate in something I knew was important to him. In my intro to biomedical engineering class, we just finished a unit on cancer. I now really see how important the funding is, we are still very far from anything that I would like to be a cure. Please donate. It would mean so much to so many." - Me
