While browsing the Internet a few years ago, Dr. Michael McCue read about a foundation that raises money for pediatric cancer research. He was struck by the organization’s novel approach: instead of participating in a walk or run, contestants are sponsored to shave their heads.

The event is all about solidarity; a sense of solidarity so strong that it transcends much else.
