BYRON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — More than 100 people came together Sunday to help support childhood cancer research, with many who arrived walking out bald.
It was the fifth annual head shaving event to benefit St. Baldrick’s Foundation, which says it’s the largest private funder of childhood cancer research.
The fundraiser works by auctioning off shaves. Volunteers agree to go bald, cut off their facial hair or even lose their eyebrows, and donors give money to sponsor the shave.
Each lock lost was for kids fighting cancer and their families, many of whom were in attendance at the event at 84th Street Pub & Grille in Byron Center.
