Ogier Fund-Razors brave the shave to raise $29,500 for childhood cancer research

Emma Graham Taylor, Kiralee Harnett, Marc Kish and Kara Rankine from Ogier's Cayman team, collectively the Ogier Fund-Razors, shaved their heads last week to raise a combined amount of $29,500 for the Cayman childhood cancer charity, St Baldrick's Foundation.

Ogier's Cayman staff, via the Charitable Giving Committee Fund, agreed to match the $10,000 goal set by Team Ogier Fund-Razors. The Ogier Fund-Razors raised the second highest amount of the firms, and in total the event has raised $314,076 to support St Baldrick's Foundation in its work to cure childhood cancers.

Partner Marc Kish said: "Every two minutes a child is diagnosed with Cancer. Research for drugs and treatment protocols for children's cancers is massively underfunded and the result is that many children are treated with drugs approved for adults, which, even if they are cured, leave them with some horrific long term side effects like cognitive and mobility issues.

"Anything that shaving our heads has done to help this cause has made it worth it. We'd like to thank the Ogier team in Cayman for their generous support."
