About Wigs for Kids
Wigs for Kids BC (W4K BC) helps kids living with cancer, live better.
A proudly volunteer-run organization, W4K BC provides funding to cover the cost of custom-made human-hair wigs for children and teens at BC Children's Hospital who have suffered hair loss due to cancer treatment or other serious illnesses. Donations to W4K BC also help families pay for medications and feeding supplies that are essential for treatment but not covered by their medical plan.
When a child has a serious illness it takes an enormous toll on the entire family–both emotionally and financially. The assistance W4K BC provides makes the family's burden a little lighter so they can focus more of their time and energy on caring for their sick child.
By contributing to W4K BC, you are making a tremendous difference in the lives of children living with cancer –and their families–across the province. Thank you for your support.

Hazel donates ponytail for Team Georgi- her brave little cousin currently kicking cancers butt!
Sunday 5th Jul As many of you know, our niece, Georgi, is undergoing cancer treatments at BCCH in Vancouver. In honour of her fight, Hazel is donating her ponytail to Wigs for Kids- an organization that provides so many resources and financial support to families during such a difficult time. It takes 10-12 ponytail donations to make a single wig! It also costs upwards of $2000 to make them! When we saw this we thought we’d reach out to our community to see if we could help alleviate the cost of wig making, so the very needed funds can continue to go towards supporting families.Supporters
