Story

So this year, there is yet again a new challenge and this will be my last Christmas challenge, as you know I have been raising money every year since I was 5 years old and I find it increasingly more difficult now with my gcse's and further education, so collectively my younger brother Oakley (a.k.a Seed) will take over future Christmas challenges. But, there is one more challenge for me and the initiation challenge for my brother Seed. Those of you that know us, know we do like our hair and hair styles, well all that is going out of the window! Yes you've guessed it, we are the soon to be bald brothers. I have never thought that I will ever be getting my hair completely shaved off and neither did Seed but here we are and I'm dreading walking into school with a bald head on a freezing cold morning but, hey, it's going to happen and we need as much sponsorship as possible. For us it's a huge sacrifice that we are both willing to make and it was surprisingly Oakley's idea to do this challenge.

So, this year we have decided to raise money to buy toys and gifts for children that are extremely vulnerable. These children have either witnessed or experiencedmental or physical abuse. Fortunately these children are being supported by an amazing charity called Kids Out. Kids Out provide a safe place to accommodate and support these children in their time of need and also usually a parent too who are fleeing an abusive situation. We cannot imagine not feeling safe in our own home as a child, its a basic right that these kids haven’t ever been given. Kids Out change their lives for the better, and pick them up from the bottom, they help them build their lives in a happy, safe and loving environment. The toys in which we buy, will go directly to these children, in most cases they arrive with no toys or anything, just the clothes in which they bring on their back, so these toys which we will buy will make a huge positive impact on a child that desperately needs the support this Christmas.

So, please, please, please, please help us to help them to make less fortunate children have a magical Christmas. We, understand that money can be a bit tight sometimes but if you can afford to help us with any amount, that would be absolutely amazing! We as a family believe in karma and what goes around comes around and what you put in will eventually come back to you in life.

Thank you so much to the people who support me every year and you guys are amazing and I'm very grateful for what we have previously achieved together. It's my last challenge and so please can you support me and Seed again this Christmas and for the years to come for Seed. He will do an amazing job!

Thanks for reading this, peace guys and you will be seeing our bald heads very soon!
