Kids Need You
Every two minutes, a child is diagnosed with cancer. This disease robs too many kids of their childhoods, dreams, and precious moments. By becoming a trimee, you’re giving kids the chance to grow, laugh, and live out their dreams.
For kids battling cancer, every day is a fight — for strength, for time, and for a brighter future. Research is the key to better treatments and real cures, but it takes a united effort to make progress. When you cut your hair and fundraise as a St. Baldrick’s “trimee,” you’re standing with every child in that fight.
Your trim becomes a powerful symbol of hope and brings us closer to a world where every child can survive and thrive. Sign up to cut your hair at a St. Baldrick’s event and join a community of volunteers supporting kids with cancer.
