SA国际传媒, St. Louis [1] raised $10,700 at the [2] head-shaving fundraiser held Jan. 28 in Koburg Hall, surpassing its goal of $10,000.
Thirty-one 鈥渟havees,鈥� including SA国际传媒 President Dr. Dale A. Meyer [3], various faculty and staff members, students and additional supporters from the St. Louis community participated in the event.
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.
Thirty-one students, faculty, staff and other supporters volunteered to have their heads shaved during the St. Baldrick鈥檚 Foundation Fundraiser Jan. 28. Here, a few of the volunteers showed off their new looks in chapel one day after the event.
鈥淓verybody has been impacted in one way or another by cancer,鈥� said the Seminary鈥檚 Director of Ministerial Recruitment and Admissions Rev. Bill Wrede, who organized the event.
St. Baldrick鈥檚 Honored Child Brett Haubrich, 12, who is fighting inoperable brain cancer, visited the Seminary event with his family. Haubrich assisted in shaving both Meyer and seminarian David Edwards. Wrede also led a prayer for Haubrich鈥檚 treatment and presented him with gifts from the Seminary.
Since partnering with St. Baldrick鈥檚 in 2012, SA国际传媒 has raised more than $47,000 for the St. Baldrick鈥檚 Foundation. Stylists from the Richmond Center Great Clips hair salon shaved the volunteers鈥� heads for the fourth year.
