About 46 Mommas Shave for the Brave

Each weekday in the United States, 46 mothers are told that their child has cancer.

The 46 Mommas represent all mothers who make the cancer journey with their child.  Our annual teams are comprised of women from across the U.S., with different backgrounds, beliefs and lifestyles; there is one thing that they have in common --- childhood cancer.

• Raise $1 million for St. Baldrick’s Foundation's childhood cancer research programs
• Hold an annual head shaving event, uniting cancer mommas and their families, to help raise these research funds.
• Increase awareness of key childhood cancer issues in our local communities
• Advocate to increase funding, both nationally and locally, for childhood cancer specific issues
• Collaborate with other childhood cancer organizations to help produce a stronger, united childhood cancer community.
