Remi's Big Chop

Remi's Big Chop!

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'm 5 years old and in Prep at school. I've been growing my hair all my life - this will be my first real haircut! I'll be chopping off 50cm of my hair at the end of August. I can't wait to have a bob haircut, and donate my long hair to a little girl or boy who needs it more than I do. They can wear my hair as a wig! As well as donating my hair, my goal is to raise $2000 for Variety- the Children's 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.
