Landmark Credit Union manager shaves head after reaching goal, raising $61K for Children's Wisconsin
BROOKFIELD, Wis. (CBS 58) -- A sales manager at Landmark Credit Union put the "fun" in fundraising Wednesday morning, and CBS 58 was there to see it at the company's Brookfield offices.
"I threw out a challenge here at Landmark. If they raised over the $50,000 for Children's Hospital, that I would shave the sides of my head and spray it blue," said Nick Hudzinski.
Landmark employees raised $61,000 for Children's Wisconsin, so Hudzinski lived up to his end of the bargain, getting his hair makeover.
Hudkinski and his family have a special incentive to help the hospital.
"This is RJ, he's my son, and he is special needs," Hudzinski said. "So he sees nine different specialists at Children's, so we spend a lot of time there and they take really good care of him."
RJ suffered a brain injury at birth, and his dad says the specialists at Children's have helped with his development.
Hudzinski tells us the $61,000 raised is the most ever for Landmark. Now he will have to keep his blue hair for at least a week.
