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

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!

Hi, my name is Nick. When I was about two years old my father was diagnosed with a brain tumor. The doctors said he only had about two months to live. He said no and lived for three more years. He passed on August 10th, 2015. He died 17 days before my birthday making it the worst day and worst birthday of my life. Ever since then I have been deeply affected and depressed.  Earlier that same year my grandfather died of lymphoma and that was pretty hard on me. Now earlier this year my aunt died of lung cancer she had been fight for years. I hate cancer and if I could I would kill it. I want just to raise money to help fight it and end the rein of terror.
