Mattea's Hair with Heart challenge

I'm chopping my hair and need your help!

I have 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'll be chopping off and donating 36cm of my hair this month and hope to raise as much money also for this wonderful charity !! 

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

$1000 !!!

Sunday 10th May
I can't believe the generosity of everyone that has made it possible to get to $1000!!! This has way surpassed what I had originally aimed to raise and it is amazing that alongside my hair being mailed off once it is chopped that there is also $1000 going directly to children and families that need it most. For anyone that has already donated I say a HUGE thank you! Peoples compassion and kindness does not dull despite the crazy world that we live in at the moment. So much love for you all !

New goal!
