Locks of Love
Our friend Ellen gave us another wonderful suggestion for a charity that supports children.
Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization
that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged
children in the United States and Canada under
age 21 suffering from long-term medical hair loss
from any diagnosis. We meet a unique need for
children by using donated hair to create the highest
quality hair prosthetics. Most of the children
helped by Locks of Love have lost their hair due
to a medical condition called alopecia areata,
which has no known cause or cure. The prostheses
we provide help to restore their self-esteem and
their confidence, enabling them to face the world
and their peers.
