Know a local family battling pediatric cancer?

Application

 

St. Baldrick’s raises money for childhood cancer research. Because kids with cancer often lose their hair during treatment, “Shavees℠” for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation show their support by shaving their heads voluntarily, and inspiring friends and family to donate money to support childhood cancer research.

THANK YOU!

The 2017 McHenry St. Baldrick’s season raised:

$171,957 for pediatric cancer research

$25,594.09 for local families battling pediatric cancer

453 Heads Shaved

54 Pony Tails Donated

This is an outstanding accomplishment! Without everyone’s dedication and commitment we would not be able to make it happen year after year!

Local Events

Be a National Hero

“Shavees” collect money from friends and family much like a walk-a-thon, and take their turn in the barber’s chair at our local event. Proceeds go to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation to fund childhood cancer research.
