Gina Cozzolino of Lanark speaks during a live broadcast of St. Baldrick’s “Brave the Shave” event. Cozzolino has become a volunteer event coordinator for Carroll County for St. Baldrick’s, a foundation that raises money for research of children’s cancer. In order to raise funds, volunteers make the pledge to shave their head as a sign of unity for children with cancer in exchange for donations to the foundation. (Alex T.
