Are you looking for a meaningful way to help children with cancer? Donating hair for kids can make a profound impact, but choosing the right organization can be overwhelming. Wigs For Kids is a leading nonprofit dedicated to helping children experiencing medical hair loss by providing wigs made from real, natural, donated hair. We never charge families for these hair replacement systems, ensuring that the focus remains on supporting the child.
Since 1981, Wigs For Kids has been at the forefront of creating innovative hair replacement solutions for children in need. Our program has evolved to guide families through the entire process seamlessly. It all begins with a Certified Service Provider who measures and fits a cap for each child, ensuring a perfect fit. Then, skilled technicians hand-tie each hair into the wig, creating a natural-looking prosthesis in our state-of-the-art facility. Finally, the Certified Service Provider styles the wig to make sure the child feels confident and comfortable.
We rely entirely on donations from compassionate individuals, companies, and foundations. When you donate to children’s cancer charities like ours, you make a lasting difference. Wondering why you should donate to children in need? Watch this video to see the life-changing impact these wigs have. Your support can provide hope and confidence to a child facing hair loss—making it one of the great causes to donate to today.

Each hair replacement system requires 18–20 ponytails. If you have at least 12 inches of healthy, uncolored hair, please consider making a hair donation. Learn more about the requirements and get information on the process.
The cost of one hair replacement system is $1,800, but we never charge the family in need. Donated funds help cover the expense of creating the hair replacement system, and they help us pay for products, services, and support. Please consider making a monetary donation today.
There are many ways to support the Wigs For Kids mission. Fundraising, corporate giving, and community outreach are just a few examples of how you can make a difference. If you are a Northeast Ohio resident, there are also volunteer opportunities to help sort ponytails, enter information into our database, and more. Explore available opportunities now.
