You learn to give back
Speaking of philanthropy, there are so many things you can do to help people by shaving your head. One of the things you can do is start a fundraiser that donates the money to your chosen charity. Australia is setting an example with The World’s Greatest Shave. The fundraising event aims to support The Leukaemia Foundation in its fight against blood cancer. Starting a fundraiser of your own not only provides financial support to the charity of your liking, it also raises awareness towards their cause.
Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram can serve as platforms for spreading news about the fundraiser. You could also blog about it if you have enough readers. Going public will help you get sponsors so you can raise more money before the shave. You can start another fundraiser for growing back your hair to the length of a winning bidder’s choice.
In addition to raising money, you can donate your hair and have it made into a wig. These wigs are usually given to cancer patients who are unable to grow hair because of chemotherapy. Locks of Love is one of the most popular non-profit organizations that accepts hair donations. Donated hairs are made into wigs for children suffering from medical hair loss. Being able to help people by shaving your head is a rewarding and humbling experience that every woman should try at least once in her life.
