What does Balding for Dollars do with my donation?

by Leila Sloss on April 21, 2009

When you donate to BC Children’s Hospital’s Balding for Dollars campaign, your donation goes towards research and towards helping families who are supporting a child through cancer.

The donations are split up approximately like this:

40% to financially supporting families who have a child with cancer; Balding for Dollars will help out with supplies, medication costs, and transportation costs (especially for families who live outside the Lower Mainland)

20% to pediatric oncology research at BC Children’s Hospital

20% to education bursaries and scholarships for childhood cancer survivors and their siblings

14% to running teen adventure camps for childhood cancer survivors and their siblings (they’ve done dogsledding, surfing, and white water rafting camps to name a few)

6% to running the Balding for Dollars campaign

If you’d like more information you can go to the Balding for Dollars website.
