I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

May I have your attention please!

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is that time of year again! I will be shaving my head again this year on March 17th (My Birthday) for the Saint Baldricks Foundation. If you are not familiar with it, what it is, is a foundation that volunteers like myself, ask people like yourself to sponsor me with a donation to the fund, which is for pediatric cancer research, and on March 17th, my gift back to you is a pretty picture of my shiny noggin on Facebook. Last year, my fundraising goal was $500. I shattered that with a total of $1,115 of donations! This year my goal is to raise $1,500 in donations, so please help me reach that goal, but most importantly you will be helping millions of people across the United States with Cancer treatment and research. Please donate, and if you cannot donate, please share this and get the word out. Thank you!

Credit Card donations can be done right on the website, and cash donations can be given to me, and I will get those on the website. Thanks everybody!

I will be shaving my head this year in honor of my friend Neil Spore, who passed away in late February from cancer at the age of 20. Last year, I honored Alex Wood's mother, who was my "Momma" as well.
