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.

Last year I set my fundraising goal to be $500 and exceeded it with the help of many anti-cancer supporters. While my hair was growing out last year, I decided to play around with different haircolors, specifically blond and red, and it inspired my challenge to allow my 2017 donors to pick my haircolor for May-thru-December 2017. For each $10 donation, donors will get to pick a color; I'll keep updating my St. Baldrick's page with the haircolor tally. A tie between haircolors will result concurrent colors (doublets, triplets, quads, etc), so I'm hoping a single color wins.

I've just uploaded an image showing all of the haircolors I've had in 2016.  First, I was a blond; then I became a redhead; and finally I dyed my hair 3 colors (top-down orange, hot pink, and purple).  I call this final color "Ball of Fire".  I've updated the current vote tally.

Gray = 10 votes; Purple = 2 votes; Red = 10 votes; Ball of Fire = 8 votes

Chartreuse: May-June
Purple: July-Aug
Hot-Pink and Dark-blue: Sep-Nov
Ruby Red: Dec-Feb
Ball-of-Fire: Mar-Apr 2018
