Bald for Bucks in
Schools.
Something magical happens when schools come together for a great cause. Teachers, staff members, parents and students make a real difference by participating in Bald for Bucks. All funds raised directly benefit cancer care and research at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, meaning your participation directly impacts our community.
You don’t have to shave your head!
Shave or cut your hair, add a strand of color or change up your style in whatever way suits you best. Schools that Go Bald together, stay strong together.
Parents.
“I’m super proud of my boys; that they’re advocates and supporting this cause at a young age. They want to make a difference. That’s a result of our family being touched by a cancer diagnosis,” said Sandhya Singh, a Bald for Bucks parent.
