Grimm shaves aide’s head for charity
‘Hair’ today, gone tomorrow
Liam McCabe lost nearly all of his hair on Saturday, but he didn’t mind a bit.
McCabe, an aide to U.S. Rep. Michael Grimm (R-C-Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights-Staten Island), agreed to have his boss shave his head to raise money for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a children’s cancer charity.
McCabe not only agreed to undergo the head-shaving, he also convinced a co-worker and a buddy to do the same.
The charity fundraiser, which took place in the backyard behind Killarney Pub on Fifth Avenue in Bay Ridge, turned the back yard into a barbershop for the afternoon. McCabe sat in a barber’s chair, ready for his big sacrifice. Grimm was ready, too. He had a twinkle in his eye.
