Local Head-Shaving Fundraiser For Kids With Cancer

The St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a volunteer-powered organization dedicated to raising money for children's cancer research, will host one of its signature head-shaving events at The Red Jug Pub at 195 Main Street in Oneonta on November 19th from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., where more than 10 volunteers will shave their heads in solidarity with kids with cancer and raise money for lifesaving research.  Those participating acquire sponsors who in turn donate in their name. Donations raised at events like this have made it possible for St. Baldrick’s to fund more than $200 million to support the development of childhood cancer treatments that are as unique as every kid.

The event will include head shaving courtesy of Crystal Palace Barber Shop. This annual event hopes to raise more than $1,000 for pediatric cancer research
