Hair Donation

I went from this...

to this:

You can, too!  It is, after all, the season to donate.  Donations accepted now will be processed in time for the Christmas season.  Think of what a joy your hair will be to children who are already struggling with so much!  Your generosity will enable to them to feel just as beautiful on the outside as they already are on the inside.  



Please consider a donation to one of the following organizations:

Locks of Love

Wigs 4 Kids

    Pantene Beautiful Lengths

A friend of mine pointed out that Locks of Love (my normal donation recipient) came under fire recently for mismanagement of donations.  To be on the safe side, I decided to donate to Wigs 4 Kids, a charity based out of Michigan that makes wigs just for kids.  Locks of Love ranges from toddler to 21 whereas Pantene's Beautiful Lengths charity focuses on adults.  

Regardless of your donation preferences, please consider growing your hair out (or cutting it if it's already long!).  There are so many beautiful folks out there who would be so happy to receive such a personal, lasting gift.  Given the stressful issues they already face on a daily basis, hair - something you and I take for granted - makes a huge difference to their self-esteem and outlook.  

My donations amount to more than cut strands.  Every single time I washed my hair, I prayed for the child and family who would one day receive my hair.  Each time I turned down suggestions to get bangs, layer my hair, color my hair, or even use particular products in my hair, I'd think of the child in need and offer those little primps and extravagances for their sake. Hair can always grow back, but your chance to gift these children and their families joy only comes around as often as you're patient enough to let your hair grow out.
