Participants Emily's Story http://beboldbebald.org/emilys-story.html I’ve always wanted to participate in a fundraiser for cancer; but it has never seemed like the right time, location, or way to do so. Be Bold, Be Bald will make a huge visual impact on the community in addition to being a great way to raise funds for a good cause. 

I am participating for many reasons.
