Maccabi Fun Run 2010 · 23 May 2010 ·

The Israeli Association for the Support and assistance of children with cancer and their families, Zichron Menachem in the UK arranges and pays for respite camps for the children and their parents. It also encourages the donation of hair to bring a smile to a child suffering from cancer's face by the provision of a made to measure wig and so restore their self-confidence.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

For 2 years I have been growing my hair. Now it is over 12 inches long I will be having it cut for Zichron Menachem who will use it to make a wig for a child who has lost their hair through cancer treatment. I have never had really short hair, but my theory is that mine will grow whilst theirs will not. 

Giving my hair is just part of the process, the wigs are expensive to make and Zichron Menachem also provides a support programme for the children and their families. 

Please help me to help them more by sponsoring my hair cut.

To ensure I really work for your sponsorship, along with Joshua and Benjamin, I will be running in the Community Fun Run for Zichron Menachem and Chai Cancer Care.

Joshua and Benjamin have been training with continuous activity and the consumption of enormous quantities of food. They are attempting to train me (by running me ragged) but don't believe I'll be able to keep up!

Just Giving can only manage donations to one charity per page, thus this page is dedicated to  Zichron Menachem. If you wish to donate specifically to Chai Cancer Care, please contact me directly.

All donations, whatever the size, make a difference.

Thank you

Nicky, Joshua and Benjamin
