*You can donate online OR you can find me at school somewhere and give me cash. I'll upload your cash donation in your name!*
*My hair is about five inches longer now than it is my photo! My team will be donating our hair to Wigs for Kids after we shave!*
Help me reach my fundraising goal by the shave date, March 10!
Every year, an estimated 250,000+ kids are diagnosed with cancer, including several within our own Stevenson community. Unlike adult cancers, childhood cancers have countless subtypes and aren’t diagnosed until they’ve already spread, making them several times more deadly. In addition, those who survive may struggle with chronic health problems for the rest of their lives. Despite this, only 4% of the National Cancer Institute’s budget is dedicated to childhood cancer research–this is where you come in!
Will you make a donation? Will I get a scalp tattoo? Will my head have many strange dents? Donate and come to Stevenson March 10 to find out!
