Naval Lodge No. 4 challenges you to participate in the St. Baldrick's Event hosted by the Naval Lodge for 2018 on March 17th, from 10:00am to 12:00pm.  Volunteers will shave their heads in solidarity with children who typically lose their hair during treatment, and we challenge YOU to join us in making a “bald” statement at the Naval Lodge (330 Pennsylvania Ave SE).

While not an easy thing to do, it’s important these children understand they’re not alone in their efforts.  Together, our message will be more profound and the task before us easier to accomplish.

But it won’t just be shaved heads! The event will have a carnival theme, with brunch and refreshments, games with prizes, and music for the whole family. Also, please consider volunteering. Extra hands are always appreciated. After the shaving, we will adjourn to a nearby venue for further fellowship.

Worldwide a child is diagnosed with cancer every three minutes, and one in five children diagnosed in the U.S. will not survive. With only 4 percent of all federal cancer research funding dedicated to pediatric cancer research, St. Baldrick’s Foundation volunteers, supporters and donors are needed to continue the battle against this devastating disease. Get involved and you'll be giving hope to infants, children, teens and young adults fighting childhood cancers.

If you would like to join us and shave your head or make a donation, please visit:
