Compassion First Fundraiser For National Alopecia Areata Foundation!

I recently did a fundraiser for the NAAF at my high school. We shaved heads and sold bracelets for $2. I got up in front of my whole school during our MLK assembly and talked about loving people no matter what they are going through. And not judging people before you know their whole story. Everyone is dealing with something difficult. And often times we all feel alone. It was so cool to see the way people responded. We sold over 700 bracelets, shaved over 80 heads, and raised over $2,500! I had a huge article in the local newspaper. If you are interested in checking it out here is the link:
