YaY! Over $1000 raised for the St Baldrick’s Foundation

This March, Blue Buddha decided to raise funds for the St Baldrick’s Foundation, which is a volunteer-driven charity that supports research to fight childhood cancers.  Volunteers sign up to “Brave the Shave” and pledge to shave their heads to raise funds and awareness about childhood cancers.

Our Marketing Director Britt Johnson is a long-time St Baldrick’s supporter.  Through her efforts, she raised $750, and she followed through with her head-shaving pact even though she was sick that whole week.  What a rockstar!  Big round of applause for Britt!

But wait, there’s more!  Through our St Baldrick’s Day special edition Bisected Byzantine Bangle (where 25% of the cost went to the St Baldrick’s Foundation), the B3 community raised $105!  We hope you are weaving and wearing your bangles with pride knowing they support such a worthy cause.

We also collected cash donations for St Baldrick’s through our retail store, and on March 14th we hosted a special fundraising day where 25% of the cost of B3 supplies sold in our retail store went to St Baldrick’s. Between those efforts we raised $171!

All together we raised a total of $1026 to fight childhood cancers.  Thank you so much everyone for your contributions!  Together we can help support these crucial research efforts.
