Kassie, 5, chops her hair to make a wig for the freedom wigs charity.

$1,470 of $500 goal
Given by 51 generous donors in 15 days

I would like to raise money for the starship foundation to help children all over New Zealand get the best care while in hospital.

Auckland

Hi I'm Kassie, I am 5 years old and I have been growing my hair since I was a baby. I decided I would like to have short hair for a change and mum suggested that I could donate my hair to a charity that makes wigs for people who have no hair. This term at school I have been learning about how to make peoples hearts shine and I am excited to think that my long ponytail will be used to make a wig for someone, put a smile on their face and make them feel awesome.
