I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

It is hard to believe that it has been 6 years since I lost my Dad (aka Bapa B, to my sons Nicholas and Christopher) to Glioblastoma.  I am once again determined to put an end to this disease. Our family loves the signs that we receive from my Dad/Bapa B❤... however, they are also constant reminders of how terrible this disease is.  Nicholas and Christopher have honored him in many ways over the years by visibly displaying his name, or the date associated with his passing, or spiritual psalms while participating in their sporting events (Baseball and Track & Field respectively)❤️

I love that I have had the opportunity , over the years, to work hand-in-hand with my sons (Nicholas and Christopher) and my Dad towards finding a cure. My wife Danielle has always been my biggest supporter both financially and emotionally as I prepare annually to participate. Help us raise money for this wonderful cause #STBALDRICKS #CHILDHOODCANCER

I'm shaving my head with St. Baldrick's to raise money and help conquer kids' cancers! Every 2 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer worldwide, and 1 in 5 of those in the U.S. will not survive.

I refuse to accept this reality, so for the last 15 years I’ve worked alongside family (my sons Nicholas and Christopher have participated with us over the years), colleagues, students, and friends to fundraise for lifesaving research to find cures and better treatments for kids. Now I need your support! Your donation can fund research to help kids survive and thrive. Join me today and let’s #DFYchildhoodCancers together.
