Hair for Hope 2010

Fancy losing your precious hair?
Ever wonder how you would look and feel, when you are bald?


Children who suffers from cancer, needs to undergo chemotherapy.
As a side effect, they will experience hair loss.
How would our little friends feel?


To support the children (morally and financially), a group of heroes and heroine go bald each year. Hair for Hope is a programme which allows you and me,
to stand in solidarity with children who are cancer-stricken.

Objectives for Hair-for-Hope (copied from http://www.hairforhope.org.sg/) :
1. Create awareness of childhood cancer in Singapore.
2. Show to children with cancer and their families that they are not alone in their fight against cancer.
3. Boost the self-esteem of children undergoing chemotherapy by sending the message that that there is nothing wrong in losing their hair or being bald.
4. Raise funds to help children with cancer and their families
5. Build a community of support for children with cancer and their families.



How can you help?
- be a volunteer
- help to raise fund
- shave, to show you emphatise with our little patients
- raise awareness, through social medium, tweets and facebook
