SJS HSA Gives: St. Baldrick’s Update
Hello SJS students and families!
A quick HSA GIVES update on our upcoming St. Baldrick’s event: the Sabers Team has raised almost $1,100! We are looking for more people to sign up to shave/buzz or just sign up and fund-raise (choose volunteer on our team page, get your own page and ask people to donate) to meet our team goal of $5,000.
Another option is to go to the team page and donate online. St. Baldrick events like ours have already raised over $16 million this year – you can easily see how a little bit from a lot of people can really make an impact!
If you can, we encourage you to come to the event on April 8th at the Hilton Mystic to cheer on our 34 (and still counting!) shavees/buzzers — the spirit of generosity and enthusiasm will certainly make your day. Head shaving starts at 2:30pm and let’s not forget the raffles! Anyone who signs up with our team and raises $10 or more, will get a St Baldrick’s wristband, a button, and some cool stickers. If you raise $50 or more you will also get a St Baldrick’s t shirt! In order to have your t shirt at the event, you need to sign up no later than Sunday, March 25th. Those who sign up after this date will still get t shirts, but they will come in after April 8th. Pediatric cancers claim the life of a child every two minutes. Join us in funding new treatments to give kids a better chance to beat this beast.
