Story
Inspired by Kira, one of our amazing 2015 Dreamflight kids (they
all are amazing by the way), we wanted to do more to provide support for those who are battling childhood cancer. What we came up with was a campaign that not only creates solidarity with cancer warriors, but hopefully inspires each of us to take on a fear or challenge in our lives with the same kind of resolve that Kira has shown.
Kira, who turns 13 in June, is one of the bravest, most compassionate, and fun-loving humans you will ever meet…and who just happens to
be in the midst of tackling a mean case of Neuroblastoma…for the second time.
Kira’s way of dealing with it: confronting each challenge head-on
with determination, humor, and her infectious, ever-present smile. Instead of letting the effects of Chemotherapy dictate when and where her lovely locks would depart, she took control, shaved her head, and now proudly displays that beautiful, bald noggin for all to see…smiling the whole time.
If Kira can dare to take on the incredibly daunting challenges associated with cancer, the rest of us can certainly show our solidarity by taking on a few dares of our own.
One of those dares is to become and Aspiring Baldilocks (AB) by shaving (shearing) our heads in solidarity. As part of that dare, we are challenging each AB Shearee to get friends and family to donate a total of $1000 towards their shearing. The goal is to get 30 heads sheared and $30,0000.
Shear Day is June 18th, 2016
