DONATING HAIR, A SIMPLE ACT OF LOVE<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, as Kat and I worked to achieve the goals of I Am Kenzo Brave<\/em>, I began reflecting on how I could contribute on a more personal level. Inspired to make a meaningful impact, I decided to grow my hair with the intention of donating it to support pediatric cancer patients. By September 2023, I took the first step toward this aim. I\u2019ve always worn my hair short, so as the months passed, I learned that the ideal length for donation is 10 inches or longer. It is December 2024 and I am 2 inches shy of that goal, hence the commitment to keep it growing and maintain its health continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s truly heartwarming to know there are others who have made the commitment to give back. In Beulah, Michigan, we met Keith<\/strong>, who stood out with his striking long hair. Naturally, I asked him about it. He explained, “I\u2019ve been growing my hair to donate to Wigs for Kids<\/a><\/strong>.” Keith shared that he had made a similar donation several years ago and was now preparing to give another 16 inches of his thick hair. Thank you, Keith, for your generosity! (Photo by: Dale Senn)<\/p>\n<\/div>

From September 2024, our little Kenzo book has been shared in the following cities: Grand Rapids and Traverse City in Michigan. We have also donated copies of the book c\/o the fundraiser of the St. Patrick of Traverse City<\/a> It has also found its way to Nevada c\/o the visual artist, Martine of Las Vegas. We will continue to spread the message of hope and the brave affirmation everywhere we go…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
