12 years ago I decided to make a difference by fundraising for pediatric cancer research through St Baldrick's. Back then I grew hair on top of my head and my face to shave for fundraising. With your help, in my first 11 years shaving, I’ve raised over $60,000 for St. Baldrick’s.
Whether you’ve been personally touched by childhood cancer, or you stand in solidarity with kids you don’t even know, please help me reach my fundraising goal to support pediatric cancer research!
Kids' cancers are different from adult cancers and childhood cancer research is extremely underfunded.
The statistics are scary! Worldwide, a child is diagnosed every 2 minutes. In the US, more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease.
Since 2005, St. Baldrick's has provided >$314,000,000 to fund cancer research grants, more than any organization other than the US government. Every grant goes through a rigorous scientific review process, ensuring every dollar has the greatest possible impact for children with cancer funding: high impact clinical trials, basic research, training the next generation of researchers, and supportive care research.
Two minutes from now, a child will be diagnosed with cancer, and another family will be faced with the very real possibility of losing their child.
Will you please make a donation to help?
