This was my first Reddit Secret Santa, and I'm so glad I participated. My Secret Santa had me completely figured out. Every March, I shave my head to raise money for the St. Baldrick's Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research. I also figured out I can get even more money for shaving off my beard. This year, I decided to grow my beard out for the entire year. It takes a lot of time and maintenance to keep it looking good and "work appropriate". My Secret Santa gave me some fantastic beard balm from Brooklyn Shaving in their town of Brooklyn, NYC, and a Byrd's pocket comb to keep my facial accessory looking good all day.

That would have been MORE than enough, but they didn't stop there. My Secret Santa made a $100 donation to the St. Baldrick's Foundation in my name, which will be matched by Apple. They were responsible for $200 going to childhood cancer research. How amazing is that???? Someone I've never met, just gave me one of the best Christmas presents I've ever received. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your generosity and kindness. I hope it pays you back tenfold. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and most of all, Thank You.

Update (3/5): We raised over $2,000 this year, thanks to my secret Santa. Thank you again so much.
