The animated series Baldies tells the story of a fearless bunch of kids who meet among beeping machines in hospital and fight for their health. The goal of Baldies is to give hope, turn fear into bravery, and burst the bubble of social unease and silence that surrounds cancer and isolates people. ![Character](/assets/1-912-60189cf6c7ad961d5d17f0a37c6c135ac3873217.png) ![Character](/assets/1-913-a070c3d1e1ba144a78fee42fb8a2105623e85618.png) ![Character](/assets/1-915-fd0851f880ef3d3ca129f6e433b7a4b06e37ce3b.png) ![Character](/assets/1-914-4c51893fc26bca258bdedabf12c09695a708b546.png) ![Character](/assets/1-916-19295b38348ec2a51f373c830d19d664b85410c7.png) ![Captain character](/assets/1-917-89c748c53b8a2ef0997f0bef92ee2947fc730441.png) ![](/assets/intro-characters-mobile.webp) ![](/assets/personal-wave-mobile.png) ## Baldies are personal Inspired by a real-life experience, this heartfelt project is the brainchild of the artist and child cancer survivor Eliška Soffer Podzimek. Combining her unique art style and quirky humor with factual information, Eliška's innovative take on the cancer narrative, told through adventures of a bunch of kids just like she once was, opens a fresh and hopeful perspective. ![Eliška the Ambassador, Survivor, Artist](/assets/personal-cards-mobile.webp) ![Eliška the Ambassador](/assets/1-869-cf73234be3deb5a24ec5c62de750987c8ab0931c.png) ### Eliška the Ambassador Passionate awareness campaigner ![Eliška the Survivor](/assets/1-875-8c61125cbef8896758404f4a8a18b56a1e0960e0.png) ### Eliška the Survivor Deep personal insight ![Eliška the Artist](/assets/1-864-bd2a6f9bc8425303fd33e0def40119444d198ca2.png) ### Eliška the Artist Authentic creative voice ![](/assets/mask-group.svg) ![](/assets/hero-blob-yellow.svg) ## Baldies touch all of us What do you feel when you hear the word 'cancer'? Most people answer: FEAR. Let's face it – most of us know of someone who had or has cancer. Cancer is definitely scary. But a lot of that fear comes from the unknown around the disease, its diagnosis and treatment. Baldies are here to demystify that unknown - and to scare the scare, especially for kids! ![](/assets/blueblob1.svg) ![](/assets/blublob2.svg) ![](/assets/blueblob3.svg) ![](/assets/blueblob4.svg) 85% Did you know that more than 85% of children with cancer can be cured? ![](/assets/fearboys.png) ![](/assets/stats-blob-mobile.svg) ## Baldies touch all of us What do you feel when you hear the word 'cancer'?
