St. Baldrick's Foundation Brave the Shave - Summer Kickoff

Brave the Shave – Summer Kickoff is a family-friendly community fundraiser benefiting the St. Baldrick's Foundation, the largest private funder of childhood cancer research grants.

Join us on Sunday, June 28, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Emerald Glen Park in Dublin as we come together to help conquer childhood cancer.

There are many ways to participate:

• Shave your head in solidarity with children fighting cancer
• Donate your hair to help create wigs for children who have lost their hair during treatment
• Raise funds for childhood cancer research
• Volunteer at the event
• Attend and support participants

Every 2 minutes, a child is diagnosed with cancer. While survival rates have improved for some childhood cancers, many treatments remain decades old, and childhood cancer research receives only a fraction of overall cancer research funding.

Funds raised through the St. Baldrick's Foundation help support lifesaving research and clinical trials that give children and families hope for a better future.

This year's event will feature:
• Head shaving and hair donation opportunities
• Photos with members of Vader's 501st Legion Stormtroopers
• Community partners and public safety agencies
• Family-friendly activities
• Opportunities to meet participants and hear their stories

Whether you're ready to shave your head, donate your hair, make a donation, volunteer, or simply cheer on those who do, we invite you to be part of something meaningful.

Together, we can help fund the next breakthrough in childhood cancer research.
