If your payment request is approved we will send you a confirmation and make a payment towards that bill on your behalf.

We are proudly working in conjunction with Sandra from ‘Ella Wigmakers’ on the Central Coast NSW to provide kids with cancer with their own special wigs. Each wig costs $2,200. We use the funds raised through our ‘Wigs 4 Kids’ campaign to cover this cost.
Speak to your Social Worker or Welfare Officer who will in return send us a referral for approval. Once approved, you will be notified and it is up to each family to liaise with Sandra from Ella Wigmakers directly to organise a wig to be specially made to fit each individual child. Sandra will make the wig and send the invoice directly to Kids with Cancer Foundation, with no cost to the family.
