HSA Gives: St. Baldrick’s

From the Saint James School HSA Gives Committee:  A HUGE thank you to everyone who participated in the $1 dress down day a few weeks back! With your help, we were able to donate over $450 to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation!!

We would love for you all to join us in what always is a fun and uplifting day!

Want to shave your head? Volunteer your time? Volunteer your son’s head to be shaved?? Whatever you’d like to do, please log onto the SJS team page and register! Sign up ASAP because once you raise $50 under your name, you’ll receive a St Baldrick’s T-shirt to thank you for your generosity! (You don’t have to shave your head to volunteer OR raise money!) The link to the team page is www.stbaldricks.org/teams/SJS.

In addition to the head shaving enjoyment, we will have a live band, snacks a tea cup raffle and more! (And yes! We are still looking for donations for raffle items, or pre-packaged food items!)

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with questions to either Phil Miller at pnmnmiller@yahoo.com or Kerry Caldwell at kmcaldwell@gmail.com
