Help families dealing with Leukemia
Donation protected
Mac, my partner's niece is 13. She is fighting leukemia for the second time and has just had bone marrow transplant.
My best friend Isabelle died of leukemia in 2014.
I want to raise funds for all the families whose loved ones have to deal with this ordeal.
On Jan 27th, I plan to donate my hair. (People often lose their hair when receiving cancer treatment, wigs are very expensive). I was going to shave the remainder, but I'll leave that up to you:)
My daughter Lucie is making a tshirt for the event.
Girl scout troop 61044 has offered to make up to 220 bracelets for each $25+ donation ( I am sooooo proud of you girls!)
My friend & chef Dede Sampson , who runs the first teaching kitchen at Google has offered to cook a meal for 6 people to raise funds, and Michelle Hurtado has offered to host the dinner at her place, in San Carlos. I'm auctioning tickets starting at $100 .
For $500 you can be the one to cut the 8 inches necessary for donation.
If you want to have the last word on exactly how short the remainder will be, you can do so by donating $2000.
Otherwise, on the evening of the 27th, I will be a shavee!
- and for those of you who haven't seen me in a while, this is what my hair looked like a few weeks ago
ALL the funds will go to St Judes Research Hospital
and I will submit all funds raised for giftmatching. We can double the funds raised!
While you are at it, register to become a bone marrow donor.
