Sabella Shares Her Hair to Help Others

May 5, 2025

At just 3 and a half years old, Sabella’s heart was touched by a simple ad, sparking a profound wish: to share her hair with children facing leukemia. This tender empathy blossomed into a tradition. On her 5th birthday, her first precious ponytail was sent off.

Now, on her 7th birthday, with hair long and healthy once more, Sabella isn’t just donating — she’s inspiring a wave of support to help Wigs For Kids craft her gift into a tangible symbol of hope for others. Her youthful compassion is turning into a powerful act of kindness, one snip at a time.

In addition to donating her hair for the second time, Sabella is hosting a fundraiser to help cover the costs of producing a hairpiece for a child in need. For more than 40 years, Wigs For Kids has been providing high quality hairpieces, created from donated hair, to children experiencing medical hair loss. These hairpieces, along with maintenance products, are provided at no cost to the families.

We hope you will join Sabella in helping children look themselves and live their lives! Sabella is offering Thank You cards to all donors who contribute $50 or more to her campaign, which include a special drawing from Sabella! You can support her campaign here, or pledge to grow your hair to help a child unable to grow their own. To be prepared for your next cut, you can review our hair donation requirements here.
