Everyone,
I wanted to share something that is upcoming next Saturday, February 27th, 2010. I will be participating at an event for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation to raise money for childhood cancer research. You can learn more about St. Baldrick’s here: http://www.stbaldricks.org/
In past years, I made a donation to someone else who was a shavee collecting pledges. This year, I am going to be much more actively involved by actually participating in one of the local events with 350+ others and having my head shaved. Having a mother who is a cancer survivor multiple times over from various forms, I’ve always done something that would benefit cancer research. I’ve volunteered and/or given charitable contributions to help breast cancer research, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, etc. This St. Baldrick’s event is one of the ways I’m contributing this year.
Partly so folks know what to expect if they stop by the open house that day and see my bald head....and partly for selfish reasons in case you would like to make a pledge, I thought I'd do an official post here in Carolina Audiophiles. If folks would like to contribute, you can visit my pledge page:
