Four years ago, I participated in St. Baldrick's, and have been growing my hair out ever since. Growing up I always had longer hair than most guys, it was something special to me. Then I heard about this event, and bye bye hair. So, here we are again, four years later, with a full head of hair looking to do something spectacular for someone, somewhere. Also, I will be donating my hair to 'Wigs For Kids," along with a donation of $10 for every $100 that I raise for the St. Baldrick's Foundation.
The original inspiration for me to do this was a childhood friend of mine, Mason Ream. He may have been a few years older than me. We might not have known each other very well, but we saw each other at church all the time. He was selfless in that he would do anything, for anyone, at anytime. Mason was a great kid and it was sad to see him taken from this world so early in his life.
He is why I am doing this again. So an amazing boy or girl can fight to see one more day. One more year. Even one more lifetime. Thank you for your donation.
