Kate's Big Chop

I'm chopping my hair and need your help!

I’ve made the decision to take the big chop and change lives!

Variety – the Children’s Charity supports kids who are sick, experiencing disadvantage or living with a disability.

I will be donating my hair to help provide a wig to someone who has lost their hair, as well as raising vital funds for kids in need.

Every gift, no matter the amount, makes a difference.

Thank you for your support!

Thank you Tami and WACKY WORKSHOPS for your wonderful donation and support. I've raised over $750 so far which means enough to help provide high school students experiencing financial hardship with a laptop to encourage their educational goals, where they otherwise may not be afforded the opportunity. ❤️

Together we will impact young lives! Variety supports kids 0-18 who are sick, experiencing disadvantage or living with a disability through grants, scholarships and programs.
Losing your hair can have profound psychological effects, particularly through childhood and adolescence. One specialised wig can cost up to $6,000 and lasts two to three years so the cost is prohibitive for many families. Because of the support from the amazing Hair with Heart community, Variety provides grants for kids across Australia who have lost their hair due to medical conditions such as alopecia, cancer and trichotillomania.
