Please sponsor my head shaving party!

How much will you donate to see me shave my head bald to help find cures for childhood cancer? This is not a rhetorical question. Yes I am going to lose my hair due to chemotherapy but why not take lemons and make lemonade? Isn't that what true happiness is all about?

After talking to many people about shaving their heads with me, I realized that most people don't really want to shave their heads. Honestly who can blame them? I don't really want to be bald either. Thanks to a friend I stumbled upon an organization called St. Baldrick's that raises money for childhood cancer research by having people get donations for shaving their heads. So instead of asking you to support me by shaving your head too....

I invite you to sponsor me to shave my head. I will be shaving my head on Sunday, October 28th. I have a friend lined up to do this, time to be announced later. We are hoping to video tape it and be able to put it on YouTube so you can actually witness the event.

In the meantime please help me make a difference. To learn more about St. Baldricks you can go to www.stbaldricks.org/about-us/index.html. To give online go to www.stbaldricks.org or via phone 888-899-BALD. If you prefer to send the money to me please fill out the donation form and mail it to me along with your donation. I got my first donation today when I shared with my general surgeon what I was doing he handed me a $100 bill. Together I know we can make a difference and make lemonade together.
Peace.
