For three years now, a fundraiser for the National Childhood Cancer Foundation has asked volunteers to shave their heads to empathize with cancer patients — and to raise cash for the organization by having their friends and associates sponsor them to do it. So if you want to see me bald, read on.

The event is called St. Baldrick’s and it takes place the Friday before St. Patrick’s day. Last year shavees raised over $850,000 for childhood cancer research. You can find out more at www.stbaldricks.org.

Here in D.C., the event will take place at Fado’s Irish Pub in Chinatown. On March 14th, you can come down, enjoy a pint, and see me lose my locks. But I’m only doing it if you guys sponsor me! So click here to see my before and after pictures and make your donation.

I know that many of you are poor students like me, but any amount will help. If you can’t contribute, you can help out by forwarding this message to two people you know who might be able to give.

Thanks for your generosity and I hope to see all of you on March 14th!
