Kimberly and Catherine and the family are very pleased to announce that the hair donation and fundraiser on May 24th was a HUMOUNGOUS success. Catherine’s Pretty Ponytails 2 collected 63 hair donations and over $13,000! The team is #2 in ALL OF ONTARIO for on-line team fundraisers for the Cancer Society! These people are amazing!! They should be so proud! This will mean so much to someone who is suffering with cancer.

Here are a few interesting facts about this event…The campaign crossed the border this time..one of the donors was from Maine. The youngest donor was 4 years old! One third of the donors were adult. The rest were between the ages of 4 and 17.There were several men this year…4 to be exact and a young boy of 9 will be donating as soon as his hair reaches the 8 inches (he’s at 7 inches). This just goes to show you ANYONE  can donate hair and help someone with cancer! For information on the hair requirements go to cancer.ca

If you would like to make a financial donation it is not too late. You can donate on-line to convio.cancer.ca/goto/prettyponytails2 until June 30th.

I want to thank all the hair donors for giving such a precious gift and for raising money to help families who are currently battling cancer and to find a cure. You rock! I would also like to thank the sponsors: Regal Hair Design, Boston Pizza Orleans, The Orleans Star, Sure Print and Graphics, Loeb Cumberland Market,  Le Prelude, Sprint Graphics, LynneArt Face painting, Caricatures and clowns and my friends who volunteered to help out once again. Without all of you this would not be possible and we are very grateful for your help and support. It means so much to us and our family!
