Posted on Feb 07, 2012

Hello! As soon as we shed sunlight on those nasty Gremlins yesterday, we received a message from our software provider saying they will be performing an upgrade between noon E.S.T on February 7 and 5 a.m. on February 8. 

This upgrade might prevent you from accessing your fundraising site or seeing it function normally, but everything should be back to normal by the time you get up tomorrow. 

Thank you for your patience and please let us know if you experience any other difficulties. 

 

UPDATE: Shaver log ins should be working

Posted on Feb 06, 2012

It seems we have worked out the kink with the Shaver log in page and you should be able to access it once again. 

Please email info@shaveforthebrave.ca if you are still having trouble. 

We thank you for your patience.

Things seems to be winding down at the @MemorialU #SFTB. Three more heads and it'll make 50! Come to the Loft in the next 15 mins!

That's a wrap! Thanks, @MemorialU! We had 48 heads and we're heading back to count a box full of money.

We're just about ready to start shaving heads at Memorial University! http://ow.ly/i/rKui

 

Keep your eyes peeled for the yellow shirts

Posted on Feb 06, 2012

image Shave for the Brave events can be hectic, crowded, and loud (just the way we like 'em!). While we want everyone to head out and have fun, we know there are sometimes questions and other moments when the best person to look for is a Young Adult Cancer Canada staff member.

In an effort to stand out from the crowd, we have given YACC staff bright yellow t-shirts this year.

We'll try to get to as many events as possible, so keep your eyes out for us. We'd love to answer any questions you have, take your picture, and just say hello.

YACC wouldn't be able to hold all these Shaves without the help of all the Head Hunters and volunteers. They will be wearing a blue version of this shirt with a yellow toque on the front and will do their best to answer any questions you may have.

GET YOUR HEAD INTO IT. 

 

UPDATE: The Shaver log in is currently down

It seems some gremlins got into the Shave website over the weekend and now people are having difficulty logging in to their Shaver fundraising centres. 

We are working on a solution and are confident that everything is fine on the other side. 

Thank you for your patience as we continue to work the kinks out of this new fundraising software, and please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your Shave experience more pleasant. 

We'll post on this website when things are back to normal.

Good morning! Gremlins got into the Shave website this weekend and now you can't log in. It's ok. We'll let you know when it's fixed #SFTB

The leaderboards have been reset! Check them out and see where you rank.

Whoa! The SFTB Facebook page had 25 new likes this morning! That's about six times more than usual!

Shave tip: Make sure you choose the right location when registering, and let us know ASAP if you don't. #SFTB
