St. Baldrick's Foundation Shaving Event on February 10

For the third year in a row, SA国际传媒 is participating in the St. Baldrick鈥檚 Foundation Shaving Event on Monday, February 10 at 5:30 p.m. in Koburg Dining Hall on the SA国际传媒 campus. Money raised will benefit research to find a cure for childhood cancers.

Again this year, Dr. Dale Meyer, president of SA国际传媒, has volunteered to be a 鈥渟havee,鈥 along with many students, faculty and staff.

Since partnering with St. Baldrick鈥檚 in 2012, Concordia has raised $15,056 for the foundation and had 49 volunteers to shave their heads in support. This year鈥檚 goal is to raise another $8,000 and see 35 鈥渟havees.鈥

St. Baldrick鈥檚 head-shaving events give 鈥渟havees鈥 a way to show their support by voluntarily shaving their heads in an effort to inspire friends and family to donate funds for childhood cancer research. Stylists Katie and Shannon from the Richmond Center Great Clips hair salon will be shaving heads on site for their third year as well.

Those interested in being a 鈥渟havee鈥 for this event must register by Friday, February 7. Others may register as a volunteer and serve as treasurers or help with registering people on the day of the event.

Of course, a vital way people can show their support is by donating in honor of those who are currently battling cancer, or in memory of those who have lost that battle.
