Bryans chops are getting the chop in support of the Neo Natal trust of NZ

Southland

Bryan grew his legendary "Chops" back in 2014 for the local Movember competition - which he won. He never got rid of them and they are kind of legendary or iconic to those around him that know him... even earning him the nickname of "Chopper" within the trucking community.

During some usual banter with friends the topic of his wooly mane and chops came up and he was asked if he would ever cut them - to which he clarified he would but only for charity.

He decided he would like to shave off both his hair and his chops for the neo natal trust of New Zealand - something very near and dear to our hearts.

Our goal is to fundraise at least $1000-$2000 for the trust but we are hoping that we can exceed this goal by quite a bit. If we raise $5000 Kristy will also have her hair shaved off as well.

The day of the "chop" will be June 28th - as on this day 2 years ago our little girl finally made her journey home from the Neo Natal unit to Gore.

Bryan and Kristy Barbour's involvement (page creator)

Our little girl was born at 33 weeks gestation and spent some time in the Invercargill Neo Natal unit. We feel that many people know of babies who have spent time in Neo natal, Scbu or NICU but are not aware of the neo natal trust and what it does for families of these babies and the units themselves.
