Emily's Hair with Heart challenge

I'm chopping my hair and need your help!

Emily has made the decision to make a difference by cutting and donating my hair to be made into a wig for someone who has lost their hair due to a medical condition.

I will be chopping off 35.5cm at the end of September ( date to be confirmed)

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.


My Updates

I’m still so amazed

Wednesday 16th Sep
This is the email Emily received tonight! Wow that is so much money for hair! Something many of us take for granted. I am beyond proud of you my girl.  

Hey Emily, did you know a wig can cost families up to $6,000 and last only a couple of years, meaning families can spend tens of thousands of dollars on the purchase of wigs throughout a child’s life.

With the help of amazing people like you, Variety - the Children's Charity can provide wigs to kids in need, as well as other vital equipment and support. So keep up the great work!

You've now raised over 150% of your goal!

Less than a week to go!

Thank you to everyone that has donated so far. Also a huge thank you to all of the people who have shared her fundraising page to their Facebook.
Emily has received so much support from so many of you wonderful people and that money will make such a difference for young children battling the unimaginable.
In 4 weeks time Emily will be making the chop and donating her beautiful hair to bring a smile to a child who has lost their hair due to a medical reason. We are so very proud of her and thankful for all of the support she has been shown.
there’s still plenty of time to donate to this wonderful cause!

Wow 🤩
