Thanks to our generous donors and energetic fundraisers, we can help transform lives and restore confidence to children living with a cancer diagnosis. Through our Wigs4Kids™ program, hair donations and fundraising efforts help create bespoke wigs for kids in need.
Your generous contributions will directly support the creation of bespoke wigs for kids with cancer, provide essential financial assistance to families in need, support vital cancer research, and fund clinical oncology positions, ensuring that every child facing a cancer diagnosis receives the care and support they deserve.

Individual hair donations received
In May 2022, our 5-year-old was diagnosed with cancer. After processing this traumatic news I knew that when she lost her hair this would be a scary and very significant thing for her to process on top of everything else. She’s very fond of her hair and is a very girly girl. I knew that a wig would make it much more manageable for her to process and deal with.
I called KWCF to ask for advice as I had no idea how to make this happen and I was instantly met with the kindest and most supportive voice on the end of the phone. KWCF made everything happen so quickly and easily and paid for a beautiful wig to be made just for our daughter.
We thank KWCF for her wig and the impact this had, and also for the other experiences they provided for my daughter and our family, bringing light and joy at a very hard time.

Restoring identity and confidence
Hair loss due to cancer treatment can’t be prevented and starts as early as a week after treatment begins. Hair loss is often one of the first real outward signs of being sick, and it can be traumatic for children, affecting their confidence and self-esteem.
Kids with cancer face immense challenges, and returning to school looking different from their friends can make it even harder. By fundraising for Wigs4Kids™, you help provide bespoke wigs that allow kids to feel more comfortable and confident in day-to-day activities and as they reintegrate into school life, making the transition a little easier.
