Spotlight: One Of Our Students Shaves Hair For Cancer Cure
In summer, 2010, we met Emily, a college student who was in our fashion photo workshop in Paris. She is a talented photographer with a heart of gold. In her personal life, she has been helping to care for her mother who has been battling cancer for the last 10 years. Emily recently decided to do something we think is amazing – she has pledged to SHAVE HER GORGEOUS HAIR on Thanksgiving weekend publicly and is raising $10,000 to help find new medications and a cure for Breast Cancer. The money will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The first goal of $5000 has been reached but the second goal of the remaining $5000 hasn’t. Chances are we all have been touched by cancer at some point in our lives – a loved one or a friend. We hope when you read this you will decide to help by donating even a small amount. There are direct results from donations and Emily’s mother is a powerful example – her 10-year battle has been helped by new medicines and treatments that have become available thanks to research funded by organizations such as the Susan G. Komen Foundation. We are in awe of Emily’s mom for her strength – and of Emily for her maturity well beyond her age!
