Skyla's Hair with Heart challenge

I'm doing the Hair with Heart challenge and I need your help!

I’ve made the decision to take on the Hair with Heart challenge and change lives!


Skyla has had a number of family members deal with cancer. Some lost, some survived and one currently battling. She was moved to donate her hair after her Nanna Debby lost hers. Please donate so kids going through this can have fabulous hair again.

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

I will be fundraising to help raise vital funds for Australian kids in need, including kids who are experiencing permanent hair loss from medical conditions such as alopecia and cancer.

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

Thank you for your support!

Everyone has been so generous we have managed to fund a wig for TWO children experiencing medical related hair loss ($750 each). We are so pleased. I have raised the goal again and maybe we can get to three wigs!

The response to this so far is mind-blowing. Thank you to everyone person donating. Skyla is currently at school and she will be very happy to see all your encouraging messages and donations this afternoon.
For anyone who doesn't know, Skyla is just 13 years old. Her dad and I could not be prouder right now.

Thanks for all the support
