Locks of Love and Other Organizations

The following was written about a more than a year ago, so I actually DID donate my hair last year, when I cut 14 inches of it off. Be proud of me (=

Locks of Love is this non-profit organization that takes in donated hair (over 10 inches) to help make hair pieces for children under the age of 18 who have a medical condition that causes them to lose their hair.

i have now been growing my hair out for over a year in order to help this organization. in the video on Locks of Love's website, it shows that you're supposed to cut your hair at the nape of the neck (see link below). However, what if i don't want my hair to be that short? i still want SOME hair! but i guess they wouldn't know if i cut just a few inches below the nape.

visit http://www.locksoflove.org/ to see how YOU can help!
here is the video link: http://www.nexxus.com/locks-of-love/index.html




another organization i would like to mention is REVO.
REVO is a non-profit organization that is trying to change the world for the better. unfortunately, i don't know much about this organization, but i heard it from nigahiga. Here are a couple of videos where Ryan and Sean talk about REVO:

Furthermore, Green Peace is also one of my favorite organizations. i first heard of this organization in the Princess Diaries because Mia cares a lot about it. Green peace is another non-profit organization that helps to save nature such as fish, whales, arctic, and antarctic animals. Recently, GP sued for the killing of some rare wolf. :) check out their link:

And last of all, We Campaign is an organization in which i am very active in. It is an internet organization that helps spread the word of problems that increase our climate crisis. Join We Campaign today!

PS. No, I was not paid to do this. I suggest you join these organizations, because I know you guys are good, people of integrity! (That's what my English teacher, Mr. Brent says, to make us feel guilty if we cheat. "I trust you guys to keep your eyes on your own paper, do your homework, and read the selections. You're all trustworthy people of integrity! Sometimes, we adults and teachers don't give you enough credit for being honest, but I trust you." How are we supposed to cheat after hearing that??
