I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: The Raleigh Llamas from The Upper Deck

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: The Raleigh Llamas from The Upper Deck

Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care?


Cancer sucks and no one should have to suffer its effects, especially children.

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!


I will also be donating my hair to Locks of Love.


Please give if you can, and if you cannot, please at least share this with others.

Together, let’s give these kids the lifetime they deserve. Thank you for your support!
