Jade's Hair with Heart challenge

My Updates

Another new target!

Sunday 31st Aug
THANK YOU to everyone who has donated!!! You have surpassed my target twice over, so I am increasing it to $2500. Thank you for your generosity and support. 

New fundraising goal!

Friday 29th Aug
Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has donated so far! We exceeded my target of $600 before my hair was even cut, so I am increasing my goal to $1000! Thanks again, everyone! 

It’s 2025 - time to donate again!

Wednesday 27th Aug
It’s been almost three years since my last big chop and my hair has grown long enough to donate again. After so many generous donations last time I donated and fundraised (mostly through Bandanna Day), I have decided to do another fundraiser for Variety this time. 

I am aiming to donate my hair to Variety’s Hair with Heart program, which has a 35cm minimum length requirement. If it’s not long enough, it’ll go to Sustainable Salon’s Ponytail Project. 

The big chop is this Friday, 29th August! 

If you would like to donate, here is some info about how your money can make an impact:

Variety - The Children's Charity supports kids 0-18 who are sick, experiencing disadvantage or living with a disability through our grants, scholarships and programs.

Variety grants wigs to kids who have lost their hair due to a medical condition, through our wig grant. It allows a child to be fitted for a specialised custom-made real hair, suction wig, that gives them increased confidence and self-esteem in their everyday lives.
