Wigs 4 Kids is fortunate to have the support of the media who covered us 104 times in 2016 though TV, radio and print articles! A special thanks to the reporters & editors who embraced our program and helped us reach out to support over 300 families this year by providing wigs & support services. Heartfelt thanks for your ongoing belief in our mission! This type of outreach is invaluable since advertising budgets are frowned upon in the nonprofit sector and being good stewards of the funds, our money goes to programming.
