The staff & students of Pearson Elementary School participated in a hair drive and are seen here proudly wearing their “I Made a Difference” t-shirts. Since it takes 10-12 ponytails to help a child, one student made the comment "between us we made one wig!" They truly understand the impact they’ve had in the lives of our kids we serve. It was also very kind of the Fundamental Financial Group to sponsor the cost of the t-shirts along with making a generous contribution toward our Maggie’s Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan program. Thank you to everyone involved!
