St. Baldrick's is fast approaching:
- We're just over two weeks away from St. Baldrick's 2010!
There is still time to sign up for anyone that still wants to join us on Friday, March 19th from 0700 -1700 hours at the Academy, Area 2, or Area 5. Signing up is easy, just go to www.stbaldricks.org and under "find an event" type in Chicago Police in the venue box and choose your location. If you are returning from last year, simply use your login information and click on register for 2010’s event.
For those unfamiliar, St. Baldrick's is an organization that raises money that goes towards research of a cure for childhood cancer. Participants agree to shave their heads in support of the kids who lose their hair in chemo treatments, and seek pledges for doing so. Fundraising is easy once you tell people what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. There is no minimum to raise and no amount is too small, however to get a t-shirt you do need to raise at least $50.00.
Participants with longer hair are also able to donate hair longer than 12" to be used by "Locks of Love" to make wigs for the patients that do lose their hair. Colored hair cannot be used for Locks of Love unfortunately.
Should you have any questions contact: Bill O'Reilly for the Academy event at chromedome1269@sbcglobal.net, Bill Murphy for the Area 2 event at 50murf@comcast.net and Anne Zamzow for the Area 5 event at annezamzow@yahoo.com.
