The Full Story
Why We Exist
It all began with a desire to make a difference in the fight against childhood cancer. Having witnessed the impact of St. Baldrick’s Foundation firsthand, we felt a calling to do more. With passion and purpose, we embarked on a journey to create Bald of the Ball, an event aimed at supporting the tireless efforts of childhood cancer researchers and providing crucial assistance to families affected by this devastating disease.
​
Our mission extends beyond raising funds; it's about fostering hope, creating awareness, and standing together as a force against childhood cancer. Bald of the Ball is a celebration of bravery, resilience, and the unwavering spirit of those who battle this terrible disease.
​
Join us in making a difference. Whether you choose to attend our event, make a donation, or become a sponsor, your support will help us fund groundbreaking research and provide much-needed assistance to families navigating the challenges of childhood cancer. 100% of ticket purchases benefits St. Baldrick’s Foundation.
​
Let's come together, celebrate life, and contribute to a future where no child has to face the harsh realities of cancer. Bald of the Ball is more than just a gathering; it's a movement of love, strength, and commitment to a brighter and healthier tomorrow for our children. Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey.
Mission
Worldwide, 400,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year. And in the U.S., more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease—more than AIDS, asthma, cystic fibrosis, congenital anomalies and diabetes combined.
​
By working closely with leading pediatric oncologists, St. Baldrick’s Foundation determines the most promising research to fund and creates funding priorities to make the greatest impact for children with cancer.
Involve Your Business or Organization
St. Baldrick’s Foundation began with three executives who were looking for a creative way to support childhood cancer research. Whether your company or organization is big or small, we can help you get involved in a way that best suits your needs.
