Bald For Bucks February 2023 - Let's Fight Cancer Together FINAL POST

[Ronald Montesano]

Last June, a seven-year participant in B4B at our school graduated. He was the most prolific fundraiser ever in the history of our team. Students and colleagues asked what we would do in 2023 and beyond. My answer was the same as it always has been: raise money for cancer research.

When the young man was asked the same question, he responded with a very interesting thought. Why did he join the effort, back in 2016? Raise money for cancer research.

It really is that simple. Cancer touches all of our lives. If, after paying the bills, donating to GCA, and covering all the other important, charitable efforts in your realm, you have a bit of spare cash that you'd like to offer, I'm grateful for your consideration. Roswell Park Cancer Institute, in Buffalo, is grateful for your consideration. The link, as always, is at the bottom.

Hair comes off this year on Friday, February 24th.

Have a wonderful new year's end celebration, and have a wonderful new year. Be well and safe. Keep contributing to this discussion board, and play lots of golf.

It's a gloomy, rainy Thursday in #TheBuff & that means it's a good time to bump this thread, and to consider supporting cancer research. Here's a link to my donation page for the Bald For Bucks initiative of Roswell Park Cancer Institute. Thank you for your time & your generosity

Bumping this to the top again, in case someone has stumbled upon a pot o' gold or some other treasure trove. Thanks in advance for supporting cancer research.

At the school where I teach, we have an advisory system. I co-advise 14 students. Behind my back (the nerve!) my co-adviser organized the troops to make a group donation of $300 to Bald For Bucks. I cannot believe it.

Thanks to them, I'm $299 away from the $3000 mark, a goal that I never thought I'd reach this year. If you have a few sheckles, frogskins, ducats, or lampshades, consider donating them today.

Click the DONATE button and help us to raise money for cancer research. Ron goes bald next Friday.

Last post for this thread this year. Thanks to all of you who have, quietly, supported the cause.

You'll want to read this piece before taking a run at me for promoting my site (which I don't do and have never done, but the unfortunate extrapolate what they wish.)

The head is bald, and my final tally is $4950. School raised $17150.

Thanks to all who passed the link along, or who donated.

In December, my wife was diagnosed with cancerous cells, and is currently in treatment. It changed forever the way I look at this mission.
