Gillette End Zone Militia to Shave Heads at One Mission Buzz Off

Burlington Resident Carlo Bertazzoni, a member of the Gillette End Zone Militia (the group who fire the shots after each touchdown), will buzz his head with his team for the One Mission Buzz Off on June 4.

The “End Zone Milita & Friends” team have raised an incredible $28,000+ over the last three years for One Mission. Their fundraising goal this year is $24,000.

The team will join New England tight end Rob Gronkowski, as well as hundreds of men, women and children who have chosen to shave their heads in solidarity and to raise for pediatric cancer programs on Sunday, June 4. All money raised will go to programs for kids fighting cancer at Boston Children’s Hospital, The Jimmy Fund Clinic at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Hasbro Children’s Hospital.

ABOUT THE BUZZ OFF

Proceeds from the Gillette Buzz Off event will benefit the One Mission Resource Room at Boston Children’s Hospital for kids and families fighting cancer. Additionally, funds will support One Mission programs at the Jimmy Fund Clinic at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Providence, Rhode Island. Unlike other head-shaving fundraising events that fund long term solutions like cancer research, One Mission’s Buzz Off for Kids with Cancer funds immediate relief initiatives that alleviate the relentless wrath cancer unleashes every single day. These programs include music and art therapy, sports outings, yoga, financial relief grants and festive holiday parties.

The 8th Annual Buzz Off for Kids with Cancer takes place on Sunday, June 4th, 2017, from 9am to 2pm at Gillette Stadium. All are welcome and encouraged to participate in this great community event to help kids with cancer.
