1 in 285 children will be diagnosed with cancer this year. From March 2, 2015 to May 15, 2015, men, women and children from the Tampa Bay area and communities nationwide will take a bold step forward to help curb this staggering statistic.
Today, the Tampa Bay Lightning players shaved their heads for the 6th Annual Veredus Cut for a Cure Charity Challenge presented by Carrabba’s Italian Grill. All proceeds benefit the Pediatric Cancer Foundation and select nonprofit organizations.
