Project Report | Oct 5, 2021
We've strengthened our Wigs-team

Dear supporters,

Our wig-maker Fuad has made and handed over 6 wigs since we last updated you on our project in June, and is currently working on more hair pieces for children with cancer or alopecia around Bosnia and Herzegovina. The 6 wigs went Ljubuški, Sarajevo, and Tuzla (4 recipients) and there are no words to express the joy and happiness of those girls who have finally received their pieces. We are attaching the photos of this fine craftsmanship so you, also, can appreciate the meticulous work and love Fuad has put in making them.

But the emphasis of this report is on the growth of our wig-team. Senada has joined the wig-making workshop and is currently in training to become an independent wigmaker. She has passed 80% of the wig-making curriculum and has been of great help to Fuad in recent months. She has helped sort, classify, and prepare hair for the wig making process and is currently learning the wefting and the ventilating technique. 

Also, we want to thank all our hair donors - all 8334 of them for bringing a smile to someone's face, without even knowing them. We thank them for each piece of their soul that they dedicated to this project. 

As for you, our dear friends and supporters, we are aware that there are thousands of inspiring projects here on GlobalGiving, so we’re grateful you chose to support our work. Thank you for being a part of our team of angels that are making our project a reality and truly stand out among many others!
