Help me make a change!
I think we can all agree that 2020 has been a year full of unprecedented change. Although we have seen some disturbing acts of selfishness from society, we've also seen some really incredible ones and I am reaching out to ask for your help to keep this up.
We have seen many incredible acts of society donating to the NHS and other organisations associated to ease the effects of COVID-19. In saying that, I share a concern my mother raised to me that there are still other charities and organisations that need our help (and may not be getting as much attention as they used to), so this is more timely than ever.
An incredible highschool friend of mine once told me she has never cut her hair, as she was inspired to grow it out and cut it when she turned 21, just like her grandmother did. Her story touched me all those years ago, and since then I've been in a bid to grow out my hair (trimming it myself at home for years) to do the same and donate it to someone who isn't as fortunate as I am to be able to grow my hair so long.
For those who don't know me too well, I do have very long hair - measuring below my ear, it's about 50cm long. Because I work in hospitality, my hair is tied up in a bun or in a plait 90% of the time - so I know that donating it to someone who has lost their hair due to a medical condition means it will go to much better use, and hopefully make them smile.
On that note, I'll be chopping off about 40cm on the 23rd of May 2020 (three days before I turn 21)!
Wigs cost families up to $6,000, lasting 1-2 years, meaning families can spend tens of thousands of dollars on the purchase of wigs throughout a child’s youth. By making a donation to Variety - the Children's Charity, you can help provide a wig or other vital equipment to a child in need. Thank you for helping kids in need.
