Meet eight-year-old Aryana, Wigs For Kids Recipient!

June 2, 2021

One of the children served by Wigs For Kids is eight-year-old Aryana. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to spotlight this incredible child—and we are so proud to welcome her to the Wigs For Kids family!

Aryana is heading into the third grade, has three brothers, and spends her free time at gymnastics and also doing arts and crafts. She also loves to play Clue and spending time with her family. 

Here are a few questions we asked her:

Q: What makes you smile?

A: My brother, Jaxon. 

Q: What are a few of your favorite foods?

A: Bacon and tacos (We’re with you there, Aryana!) 

Q: What does the hairpiece mean to you?

A: It’s my treasure…I needed it so much. 

Q: What is your wish for the world?

A: I wish COVID would be over for the world. 

Because of donors and friends like you, we’re able to continue to support children like Aryana. To learn more about becoming a monthly donor, please click here.
