To celebrate his 35th birthday, Gregory is taking a big leap by shaving off six years’ worth of hair growth as part of the Leucan Shaved Head Challenge. The funds raised will be donated to Leucan to support families facing the storm of pediatric cancer.

Gregory also plans to donate his hair to a company that specializes in making wigs for people who are living with an illness.

For his 35th birthday, he doesn’t want gifts, just donations to help him reach his goal of raising $15,000 for children in Quebec who live every day with pediatric cancer or its aftereffects.
