Mangaluru, Jul 19: Mangalore Ladies Circle – 82, Area 13 under ladies circle india, in association with Mercy Beauty Academy & Ladies Salon Mangaluru, together have joined the ‘Global Cut A Thon’ which is a hair donation programme for cancer patients happening worldwide on July 24.

Ladies Circle India is a non-political, non-sectarian organisation made up of like-minded young women that bond together to serve the community. Friendship and Service is their motto. They have a number of education, school infrastructure, women empowerment and community service projects executed over the past years.

The women have sincerely requested to please come forward and donate 12 inches length of hair, from which a wig will be made and donated to the cancer patients. Though hair loss is painless, it is one of the most distressing side effects of chemotherapy and lowers self-esteem. They aim to get together and bring some hope and smiles on these people’s faces.

People who are interested in donating their hair, can please visit Mercy Beauty Academy & Ladies Salon, Near C V Nayak Hall, Bunts Hostel, Mangaluru from July 19 to July 23 to avail a free haircut (for a basic straight cut). Book an appointment – 8277049932/ 0824 2495902.

Hair for Hope will be a year-long initiative which will continue. Hence, at any time one wishes to donate hair or for any further details, please contact Monisha (9008819391) or Nandita (8971377025) of Ladies Circle India, Mangaluru.
