It Ain't Over 'til Its Over

Apparently it ain't over yet.

In a late surge, nearly $200 was donated on my head in early May. Pushing my total over $4000. As promised, for every thousand I will add an inch of Fro. So last years paltry four inch fro will be topped by the 2009 Fro and five inches.

Stay tuned.

Here 's a photo 28 days after the last shave.

Grand Total $3868

Thank you everyone for your support. At the end of April my campaign raised $3868 for the St Baldricks Foundation. I had a few pledges that did not come in--but its not too late.

I shaved my head until April 1. Went to Boston to show off the Mr Clean look to my New England pals, and then let my hair start growing back in.

I posted the final video of the year today, Mow That Fro. You can watch it by clicking on the youtube link.

Thanks again,
The artist formerly known as Fro

PS. In Cleveland we raised $163,632, and nationally over 14 million is in the bank.
25,ooo HEADS!

Fro surges past $3000 | Declares VICTORY

In a stunning last minute victory Fro announced today he will shave his head, in support of kids with cancer who lose their hair. By surpassing the campaign goal Fro also promised there will be a fro next year.

Thank you for your support. And if you haven't made a donation, there is still plenty of time. St Baldricks is a big organization and does not close their books March 17.

(CLEVELAND) The campaign to save Fro remains $240 short of its $3000 campaign goal. By not reaching the magic number, the Fro will not comeback next year.

The Friends of Fro committee is working furiously to promote the headshaving, asking for only $10 donations. Fro's mother has reissued her video, "Mom says Get a Haircut."

Pulling out all the stops, the appeal has reached China. Follow the link to YouTube China. Last year's headshaving, CHINESE | Mow that fro. The friends insist the fro must return .

FRO COMES UP SHORT

My fellow Americans. Let me be perfectly clear.
The FRO is in trouble.

YES! Many of my supporters have observed that the FRO has come up short. This year's fro is a calculated 1/3 less than last year's wild ambition--1/3 shorter, but make no mistake, I am sporting a fro.

YES! Many of my friends have observed that I set my goal at a $3,000--less than 1/2 of the amount last year.

OH NO! Did you know that I have FAILED to raise even 1/4 of last year’s funds! Only $1,750. If I fail to reach my modest $3,000 goal, the fro will have been voted out of office. Next year there will be NO FRO!

HOW CAN YOU HELP SAVE THE FRO?
My email list of friends includes 250 names. I need one half of my friends to contribute $10 (one haircut). Ten dollars from half of you, and I will make my goal. And the FRO grows back.

TEN DOLLARS! ONE HAIRCUT!

Let it Fro!

CLEVELAND - Big snow today. I could not pass up the opportunity for a few photos of SNOW and FRO.

Last year's headline, "Let it Fro, Let it Fro, Let it Fro!" comes to life.
