St. Jude House Squirt Hunt team recently participated in a "Balding Knights" Team Service Project for the
St. Baldrick's Foundation on Friday, February 12th.  One of our team parents, Maria Schmit, organized the event and partnered us together with the Alsip VFW Post 450 who provided the space and made
a generous donation to the cause. 

At the event we had a licensed hairdresser and team Mom, Wendy Bussie, provide the 'buzz' cuts for the team and we used our "Stick to it" reading funds to order pizza for all who attended. Our team collected donations by finding people to sponsor the players getting their head's shaved.

Through the support of our team families and the Alsip VFW Post we managed to raise over $1,200 for the St. Baldbrick's Foundation.  Below are photos of the team from the event.  Our St. Baldrick's Donation page will still be active for a few weeks if anyone else from the St. Jude Organization wants to make a donation to a wonderful cause that works with pediatric oncologists to research and create funding priorities to help fight childhood cancer.
