West Allis Officials shaving their heads for childhood cancer research

Mayor Dan Devine, Police Chief Mike Jungbluth.Beth Heflin from the WAWM School District, Firefighters, Police Officers and more shaved their heads in solidarity with children affected by childhood cancer.

The St. Baldrick's Foundation is the world's largest volunteer-driven fundraising program for childhood cancer research, and today the St. Baldrick's Foundation funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. government. Since 2000, more than 147,000 volunteers -- including over 12,000 women -- have shaved in solidarity with children with cancer at events in dozens of countries and every U.S. state. Thanks to generous friends and family, these shavees have raised over $90 million for life-saving research, and each is a walking billboard for the cause!
