It was a joy to visit Issac Monfort Elementary School today for a cut-a-thon held in support of Wigs 4 Kids! Many students and staff stepped up to donate their hair so they could have a local impact, serving children right here in their communities. By the end of the event, we had enough hair to make 4 wigs! A special thank you to all of our stylists who donated their time & talent to cut hair.
