Giving Back - St. Baldricks
Raising money for a cause is a very challenging task. Especially when an effort becomes “corporate” it is hard to maintain the passion necessary to keep up the good work.
I am a fan of the St. Baldrick’s Foundation. Their focus is funds for research of childhood cancer. Each St. Patrick’s Day thousands of supporters line up to have their heads shaved for the cause. The money raised and the awareness it brings is tremendous.
I’m a fan because of their ability to raise the bar each year. More participants. More publicity. More good being done. In the last 10 years more than $50 million has been raised and it’s bigger every year.
This 3 minute video (while a tear jerker) explains the importance of what is being done. Wait for the ending…Aiden is adorable.

Nice post Victor, and a very worthy cause you are supporting. You have also made some very good points in the rest of your blog. I wish you well for your future success.
Thanks for visiting Keith.
St. Baldrick’s supports a great cause and they do it in a passionate way. Plus the % that goes to the cause is very, very high which is important to me.
