Boosters at Our Lady of Lourdes School sponsored a St. Baldrick’s event at the parish fish fry on March 16.
According to Joanne Brock, a teacher at Our Lady of Lourdes School, the goal was to raise $1,500 for pediatric cancer research and to support two parishioners in their battles against childhood cancer.
What began, she said, with 10 volunteers grew to more than 70, and $15,000 was raised. More than 50 students at Our Lady of Lourdes School had their hair and locks shorn during the event.
