Hey Everyone,
This years St. Baldrick's event is close and I need your help. St. Baldricks Foundation is a non-profit organization to raise money for pediatric cancer research. The goal is to have an event, raise as much money as you can, and shave heads in solidarity with Pediatric cancer patients. For the past three years, palm Beach High School and Wellington High School have had separate events during school hours, Palm Beach Central alone has raised over $132,000 dollars. This year, we are putting aside the rivalry and fighting what really matters: Pediatric Cancer. Last year, I shaved my head for St. Baldrick's and raised $1425 dollars on my own. This is the cause that I have dedicated all of my strength to, and i plan to support this foundation until they find a cure. I want to help fund researchers that WILL find a cure for pediatric cancer. I need YOU.This year I am on the comittee that will plan this years event. So I am asking two things as your family and freind,
1. Visit my personal St. Baldricks page and make a Donation (the proceeds go directly to pediatric cancer research) stbaldricks.org/participants/karleejschell
2. Stop by our event on March 25th 2011 from 4-7 for bounce houses, tournaments, performances by various groups, shaving heads, yummy food, a live DJ and so much more!! The Event is at the Wellington Village park on Pierson Park Road.
I have dedicated myself to this organization, and I feel so strongly about it. It means the world to me when I am able to help. I understand that most of you live far away and cannot attend the event, but I would be incredibly grateful if you would donate
