Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care? I’m shaving my head for kids with cancer so they don’t feel as nervous doing it. I hope you will too so we could help kids with cancer feel normal to shave their heads. Also, a benefit of doing this is your not just shaving your head, but your also gathering money, so scientists can find a cure for cancer, and so that people can stop losing loved ones from cancer.
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!
