Tommy's Hair Cut for Wigs for Kids

By Marc Banks

Tommy's Mission: A Tribute to Dylan Smith

At just 11 years old, Tommy has been on a journey inspired by the memory of his cousin, Dylan Smith. Dylan, a young warrior, fought cancer valiantly until he was 13. His passing on 16 August 2021 inspired Tommy to grow his hair to fundraise for cancer research and to gift his majestic locks to 'Wigs for Kids.'

We are pleased to share that Tommy's hair is long enough to fulfil this promise, and he's inviting you to back his efforts.

With the full support of Nambour State College, Tommy will be stepping up on 20 October 2023, in front of his peers, to get his haircut. This event isn't just a haircut; it's a celebration of Tommy's dedication and a beacon to shine a light on this beautiful cause. It's a testament to how one individual's passion can ripple out and inspire change. Join us in championing Tommy's mission.
