A
campaign on Hair Donation
Women
Cell and NSS
unit of Marian college kuttikkanam in association with Hair for Hope India is
organizing a campaign on Hair donation for the staff and students of this
college.
For cancer patients,
hair loss is the most stressful side effect of chemotherapy and radiation
treatment. When a person loses their hair suddenly due to medical reasons, they
feel they've lost their identity. What results is a lack of self-esteem and low
morale.
Hair is valuable and
donating hair for hair loss victims is so noble. It is a kind, generous and
satisfying thing to do. It doesn't just give them hair - it gives them
confidences, a return of self esteem, and allows them to be…..just like
everyone else. Donating hair to create a natural looking wig will also allow
patients to go on with their lives without announcing "I am a
patient" to the rest of the world. It isn’t just about hair; it’s about
lending a helping hand.
Through this program we aim to create awareness about hair donation, to inspire
people to grow healthy hair and donate it for a noble cause- collect
hair to create wigs for cancer patients to give them confidence to face society
and courage to take on the disease.
