I'm shaving my head in honor of Jack Kunkle. From the day I met his sister, Emily Kunkle, I could tell that she had an amazing brother. She always spoke of all the good he was doing and how wonderful he was. I only had the honor of meeting him once. However, that one time was enough for me to know that he was truly a phenomenal human being.
I went to their house one weekend to support Em in shaving her head. Jack had just gotten out of the hospital but was the happiest he could be. He was cracking jokes at the dinner table and later went out with his friends. He didn't let anything stop him from doing what he loved and it was beautiful. I strive to be as positive as he was and his family continues to be through this rough time.
I am shaving my head, not only to raise money, but also to raise awareness of the terrible thing that is childhood cancer. Kid's cancer is different from adult cancer and is extremely unfunded. It is up to us to change this. This is where you come in. Will you make a donation? Every donation, no matter how large or small, makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers. Please join me in fighting this awful disease.
