Police department plans to raise cancer awareness

by | Nov 12, 2020 | Latest

Several Princeton Police Officers have decided to forego shaving this month to raise cancer awareness. The department, including Police Chief Mark Moyle, are participating in No- Shave November.

“It’s something we saw we could do as a community service to raise awareness for cancer and hair loss,” said Officer Armando Loya. “It’s a way to show support to the community.”

The goal of No-Shave November is to raise awareness by embracing hair, which many cancer patients lose. The participant then donates monthly grooming costs to No-Shave November organizations which partner with several nonprofit organizations such as Prevent Cancer Foundation, Fight Colorectal Cancer and St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital Research.
