Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science St. Baldrick's Foundation Shaving Event

Please support Daisy Hoeft & Rosanne Oggoian! 

Imagine one day your doctor tells you that your child has cancer. Everything that you have hoped and dreamed of disappears for that moment; your life is turned upside down. Your family’s future depends on available medical therapies and research. Thousands of people each week receive the news that they or their family member has blood cancer. In June of 2008, Gracie's parents family received the news that their precious 20 month old daughter had leukemia. She underwent intensive chemotherapy and, thank God, she has been in remission for over six years.
Gracie's famly is eternally grateful to the doctors, nurses, hospital staff and medical researchers that so lovingly dedicate their lives to healing children and adults with blood cancer. They make all of the difference in the world, but they need our financial support to develop new therapies, improve on old ones, and find a cure for these miserable diseases that ruin lives.
We are shaving our heads to raise money for childhood cancer research! Did you know that kids' cancers are different from adult cancers? It's true. And childhood cancer research is extremely underfunded. So we decided to do something about it by raising money for cures.Now we need your help! Will you make a donation? Every dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers.

Please join us on March 29!
