Fourth-grader shaves head for friend who battled cancer

Mikey’s Bald Brigade set out to raise money for childhood cancer research, and, oh boy, were they successful.

The 29 boys and their dads — with plenty of help from fellow students at Catheryn Gates Elementary School in Roseville — raised $15,500 for the campus’s inaugural St. Baldrick’s event on Friday, March 1.

The nationwide fundraiser generates money for cancer research. This local event benefits the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center through the Roseville-based nonprofit Keaton Raphael Memorial. See full article HERE
