I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

If I had received $20 for every time someone made a comment about my hair, I’d already have surpassed my goal of raising $5,000 for childhood cancer research. The obvious comments like, “dude, what’s up with the hair,” or, “comb much?” and the more obscure, “electrical sockets are for toasters, man,” or, “what band are you with?” made me think about how I could use my wild mane for the common good and still keep it. Turns out that the answer was in the losing and not the keeping.

On March 18, I will be shaving off my signature locks to help unlock a cure for cancer.

To each of you that have looked at a sick child wanting to help but feeling powerless to do so, and to each of you that know that this could be the year that “they” find the cure realizing that “you” can’t do it, and to each of you that believe that kids don’t deserve to suffer, this is “your” chance to be a part of the cure.

S., dear friend: this is for the child in you.

I am having my head shaved to stand in solidarity with kids fighting cancer, who typically lose their hair during treatment. More importantly, I'm doing it to raise funds for childhood cancer research!

Worldwide, more than 160,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year. The St. Baldrick's Foundation partners with organizations around the world to fund childhood cancer research. We must all do everything we can to give kids a better chance for a cure.

Thank you for your support!
