Mississauga/West Toronto - Do you need a FREE summer hair cut? A group of high spirited volunteers getting one, to raise money by shaving or cutting off their hair at this year’s Shave to Save Event to raise funds for the Betty and Buster Lockwood Cancer Detection and Treatment Centre.
Patients receiving treatment for cancer will benefit greatly from the funds being raised at Monday's 'Shave to Save.’

This is the 6th annual Trillium Shave to Save event. Shave to Save was started in 2005 by David Tomaz, maintenance representative with Trillium, who has lost several family members to cancer. David started the event in gratitude for the help and care his father received as a patient at Trillium. This event is dedicated to the memory of David's father, Venancio Tomaz, who passed away in September 1991.
