SHAVED!



On March 17th, St. Patrick's Day, it all came off!
Thanks to everyone who sponsored the shave for your support! Together we've raised thousands of dollars to help CureSearch and the National Childhood Cancer Foundation in their fight against Childhood Cancer.

My hair may be off, but it's not too late to add your donation and help this worthy cause!

Thanks,
Brett Dewey,
CEO, WickedCoolStuff.com

Dear WickedCoolStuff.com visitor,

At WickedCoolStuff.com we do a lot of time-travelling. Clicking on a link and rediscovering a favorite cartoon, movie or comic book hero is a part of what makes this site so much fun. We'd like to help other kids grow up to have the experience of looking back on fond childhood memories... This spring I invite you to join us as we work in support of the National Childhood Cancer Foundation.

This March, I’m adding a twist to my St. Patrick’s Day celebration by shaving my head to raise money for a cure for childhood cancer through an event called St. Baldrick's Day. I'd love it if you could support this drive with your donation.



St. Baldrick’s was dreamt up by a group of business executives in New York City a couple years ago, who had been observing St. Patrick’s Day in the traditional way---pints at their favorite pub, with music and laughter in great supply. They decided to give their celebration a little twist and help young children diagnosed with cancer. So, the group recruited volunteers to have their heads shaved in public in return for pledges of financial support.

What began with a goal of “$17,000 on the 17th of March,” in three years has raised more than $3,000,000! The beneficiary of the event is the National Childhood Cancer Foundation, the only organization of its kind focused solely on supporting life-saving research and treatment of childhood cancer.

Unlike many of these children who face an uncertain future, I am lucky enough to know that my hair will grow back in just a couple of months. So, if a little off the top will help save the life of a child, it’s a small price to pay.

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to the National Childhood Cancer Foundation by sponsoring me to shave my head. To make a donation, and learn more about the event and NCCF, Visit www.StBaldricks.org, click on “Sponsor a Shavee” to submit a donation in my name, or call 800-458-6223 to donate by phone.

I'll be getting shaved at the local firestation (North Hollywood, CA Firestation 89) on March 17th at 8am - Check back in the afternoon - we'll take pictures and post them at WickedCoolStuff.com!

Thanks for your support!

Brett "Soon To Be Bald" Dewey,
CEO, WickedCoolStuff.com
