I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Boundary Stone Public House

The older I get the more and more I am directly and indirectly affected by those being diagnosed with cancer. Friends and family have been taken way too early by this indiscriminate disease. Being a new parent, I can't imagine how difficult it must be to get the call from the doctor saying your child has been diagnosed with cancer. The emotional roller coaster of fear and hope for both parents and kids must be unbelievably challenging.

 
To add to the challenge, research on childhood cancers is extremely underfunded, which is where St. Baldrick's comes in. Their annual head shaving events are specifically dedicated to childhood cancer research and on March 15th, I'm shaving my head and beard to help the cause. Please consider donating and/or joining the team. No amount is too small! 
If you're in the city on the 15th, please stop by Boundary Stone DC​ to join in the fun. There will be raffles, a silent auction and drink specials all day.  
Thanks in advance for considering a fully tax deductible donation!
