Wigs For Kids Staff Member Joins the Many Faces of Joy Campaign

November 20, 2024

We are thrilled to announce that Wigs For Kids staff member Melanie Morrison of Simply Melanie Jane has joined our special Wigs For Kids holiday campaign, “The Many Faces of Joy.”  This campaign spotlights the hundreds of recipients we serve each year, celebrating the joy and confidence they experience when they find their beauty from within.  Melanie is offering free crochet patterns for anyone who makes a donation to our Many Faces of Joy campaign!

Melanie shared, “I’m running this campaign because, as a Wigs For Kids staff member, I love seeing firsthand the joy that comes to a child when they receive their hairpiece and put it on for the first time. That they can now feel and look like themselves again and participate more freely in their everyday life is precious and priceless. Please join me in raising money to help as many children as we can!”

We encourage you to support Melanie’s incredible event here!

Thank you to all Melanie for participating in this special event!
