I will be shaving my head AND beard at Portage Lakes Career Center's shaving day on Friday, March 15th. You can join the team and have your head shaved by one of our Cosmetology students while raising money to help fight childhood cancers.
As an incentive, the person to donates the largest amount to my page will dictate the manner / order in which my head & beard will be shaved on March 15th. (perhaps check out my 2016 after shave picture for inspiration)
- as of 12:30p on 03/05 - the highest single donation is $51.10 (ties go to the earliest donation of that amount on 02/29)

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