Why am I shaving my head, and why should you care?
Cancer is real, is been in my family and friends, I wanted to help in some way, years ago I started donating my hair every 3 years to make wigs for children now I joined this organization and I’ll shave my head honoring:
My little friend Ema R. She is brave and strong, a true warrior as well as her whole family. Actually she is in remission, living life, dancing and enjoying her family.
My Dad Juan Vazquez Diaz in heaven now and in our hearts.
Aunt Maria Engracia survivor
Aunt Carolina Diaz in heaven
Aunt Martha Michel survivor
Dennis McGaughey in heaven
Alvin Higa
Jenene Portune
About the organization:
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!
