SHAVE EVENT
Most of our kids lost their hair during treatment, and did not have the choice to be bald. We chose to shave our heads to stand in solidarity with our kids, and bring awareness to childhood cancer. We knew a large group of bald moms would generate a lot of curiosity, and would therefore give us a platform to raise awareness.
Hair grows back, kids don't.
We ARE 46 Mommas on a mission to raise awareness, raise funds for research and inspire others to help fund a cure for childhood cancer.
Each year a new class of 46 Mommas is inducted into the cause to empower and engage mothers of children with cancer. The number 46 is significant. On average, each weekday, 46 families receive the news that their child has cancer. Through increasing awareness of childhood cancer and raising funds for childhood cancer research by shaving our heads, we hope to one day be a group that no longer needs to exist.
