Fundraising for Cancer - Florence 3B

EPS is extremely proud of Florence. Over the holidays, Florence's brother decided to raise funds for cancer patients by shaving his head. Florence asked her Mum if she too could participate in raising funds for cancer patients by shaving her head. Initially, Florence's Mum replied 'No'. Florence queried her response by replying “That’s sexist Mum”. Florence's Mum pondered this response and decided Florence was absolutely right! They decided the best plan forward was to cut her hair and donate the hair to a charity that constructs wigs for cancer patients. It needed to be 20cm’s long. Florence's hair was 22cm’s!

Florence's hair was dispatched to the Kids with Cancer Foundation. Here is the before and after shot.
