Bald for Bucks started in schools, but it has since grown into a community fundraiser with countless ways to participate. Bringing Bald for Bucks to your workplace is the perfect opportunity to help your team bond while supporting a cause that has a real impact. It’s a fun and unique way to give back to the community — plus, it’s easy to execute, doesn’t take long and can easily fit into your team’s busy schedules.
Whether you’re shaving your head, cutting your hair or growing your beard, there’s a way your team can do so in solidarity with cancer patients.
Select who will cut or shave the participant’s hair. You can do it yourself or partner with a local salon.
