donate to help kids cancer at SaintBaldricks.org

I have a friend that is helping a worthy cause called Saint Baldricks. St. Baldrick's is the world's largest volunteer-driven fundraising event for childhood cancer research. Thousands of volunteers shave their heads in solidarity of children with cancer, while requesting donations of support from friends and family.

At a St. Baldrick's event, something amazing happens. People who normally shy away from the very thought of childhood cancer find themselves compelled to support this cause after looking into the face of these brave children who are smiling broadly as their friends and family members proudly display their newly shorn heads.

Volunteers and donors see it can be fun to support a serious cause. Young cancer patients and survivors see how many people care. And researchers see St. Baldrick's funds helping to find cures!
please click on the site http://www.stbaldricks.org/particip...p;x=21&y=6# and make a donation in the name of Tara Treglowne in any amount you choose. This money will help out greatly for cancer research for kids. The deadline for donating to Tara's is 03/16/09 as Tara will have her head shaved on the 17th of MArch to fulfill her obligation for our donations to this wonderful organization. Thanks for reading and God bless -Ray Alger
