Entry Form

This year ASU’s Devilish Homecoming is centered around giving back to the community with our Homecoming service project called Locks of Love and Goin’ Bald for Bucks. All organizations and groups participating in Homecoming will be competing in this event as we all help to make a difference in cancer patients lives and help financially, all proceeds go directly to the Roswell Park Cancer Institute. Locks of Love is a non-profit organization that helps provide wigs to cancer patients to help boost their selfesteem. Goin’ Bald for Bucks is a symbolic fundraiser for students to shave their heads to show support to cancer patients who have lost their hair from this life-alternating disease. Over $5,000 was raised in donations in 2008, and we hope with your support we can reach this goal again in 2009! Participants will receive a once in a lifetime experience as well as a limited Locks of Love and Goin’ Bald for Bucks 2009 Homecoming tee!

Locks of Love

Locks of Love is a public non-profit organiztion that provides hair pieces to financially disadvantaged children in the United States

and Canada under the age of 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis.

Most of the children helped by Locks of Love have lost their hair due to a medical conditon called alopecia aerate, which has no known cause or cure.

The prostheses we provide help to restore their self-esteem and their confidence, enabling them to face the world and their peers.

For Locks of Love, hair will need to be 10" or longer. Hair cannot be bleached, but can be dyed.

Goin' Bald for Bucks

Goin' Bald for Bucks is a non-profit organization that gives men and women the opportunity to shave their heads in an effort to reach out to

cancer patients who no longer have any more hair.

This is a symbolic gesture to let cancer patients know that people around the world are there fore them!
