I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

This year's reason to continue my journey with St. Baldricks is a young man named Johnnie. He became diagnosed with Lymphoma and now has a 6-8 month stint with chemotherapy. He's a nephew of a church member of mine. The story she told tugged my heart and it is the reason I'll be a shavee for the 3rd time. 

I'm glad I am able to raise funds, but the outward act of shaving to me makes me feel connected. The pain of the treatment is not comparable but any means. It's as if the losing of hair shows them I hear you, I see you. 

I hope that the treatment works. I hope there is remission. I hope it will never return. For Johnnie.


Research is hope for kids with cancer, but donations to find cures have been down since 2020.

Your gift will give kids hope, supporting the best research across the country, through the largest charity funder of childhood cancer research grants.

Cancer kills more of our kids than any other disease. I don’t want to let these kids down. Can you help? Thank you!
