St. Baldrick's Foundation: Going Bald for a Cause
Lake Park SROs shave heads to fund raise for children's cancer research.
Special thanks to School Resource Officers Ryan Forrest (East Campus) and
Chris Schwytzer (West Campus) who volunteered to
shave their heads as part of the Roselle Police Department's participation in the annual St. Baldrick's Foundation fundraiser.
Worldwide, a child is diagnosed with cancer every two minutes; in the U.S., more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease. Many Lancers have been personally affected, which motivated Lake Park's SROs to support this fundraising effort for childhood cancer research.
Nearly $1500 was raised districtwide through raffle ticket sales as well as coin, cash and online donations. One hundred percent of the profits will be donated to the St. Baldrick's foundation to support life saving research! Special thanks to Italian Pizza Kitchen for donating pizza lunch to the student "winners" whose names were drawn to
participate in the head shaving on
Thursday, March 14.
The RPD St. Baldrick's Shave Event will be hosted on Saturday, March 16 at 4:00 p.m. at the station, located at 103 E. Prospect Street. Online donations are still being accepted to support the Foundation's cancer research efforts.
