Hair For Hope 2008

Hair For Hope ‘08
Lose Your Hair, Light A Heart

Hair for Hope is an event, which invites members of the public to shave their heads to show their support for children with cancer. Through this symbolic gesture, CCF aims to:

• Create awareness of childhood cancer in Singapore.
• Tell every child with cancer and their families that they are not alone in the fight against cancer and that there is nothing wrong about losing hair or being bald
• Raise funds to help children with cancer and their families
• Build a community of support for children with cancer

—

The Dunamis Amateur Basketball Team fully supports the Hair For Hope event. The children definitely do not need your hair. What they do need is your support by signing up or spreading the word.

Let’s all do our part.

Biggest Busts In NBA Draft History

1984: Michael Jordan is selected third overall, but never lives up to expectations, batting .202 with 50 career RBI
