St. Baldrick's

Five FMIG members raised money for St. Baldrick's this past Saturday, collecting pledges to shave their heads for pediatric cancer research.  FMIG sponsored each member with $50 each.  M4s Trevin Mayabb, Lincoln Sheets, and Lane Wilson teamed up with M3 Tim Perkins on the team Psychogenic Alopecia.  M2 Alex Zweig also participated on the team Shaved by the Bell.  Psychogenic Alopecia raised more than $500, Shaved by the Bell more than $7,000!  More than $27,000 in total was raised for the event!
