Catherine wants to donate her hair again in 2010!
Catherine has been growing her hair since her first donation back in June 2008 and it will be long enough to do it again next year. That means there will be a Catherine’s Pretty Ponytails Campaign #3 in May or June 2010! I and her 4 year old sister are hoping that our hair will be long enough in time too! If you are in the Ottawa, Ontario area and would like to join us on the big day (date to be determined but will probably on a Sunday in June near Catherine’s birthday since this idea was originally a birthday wish to help those with cancer) you can contact us at ponytailscampaign@rogers.com. If you are not from the area but would like to donate anyway all the info is on the cancer.ca website under the “hair donations” section. The website will give you hair requirements, how to prepare the hair and where you can mail it to in your area. It takes UP TO 12 hair donations to make one wig for a person who has lost their hair due to cancer! Hope you can help either by donating or by telling people about hair donations. It’s something ANYONE can do, our youngest hair donor this year was only 4 years old, we had a boy and 4 men join us too!
