Locks of Love:
Client Sandy Birmer gave 12 inches of hair to the American cancer society "Locks of Love". Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially
disadvantaged children under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis. They meet a unique need for children by using donated hair to create
the highest quality hair prosthetics.
