Eleven year old Langdon resident Haiden Porter was inspired to get his first major haircut ever and donate that hair for the manufacture of wigs for cancer patients.
“After 11 years, our son has decided to cut off all his hair and donate it to cancer.
He honestly came to this idea on his own”, explained proud parents Jason and Laura-Leigh.
Haiden shares his pledge “I am a cancer fighter!
I am getting my first ever big hair cut and will be donating my hair to be used to make wigs for those who have lost their hair during cancer treatment.
I know there have been many people in my life who have wondered if this day would ever come, so I thought I would take the opportunity to raise money for the fight against cancer at the same time.
The money I raise will help the Canadian Cancer Society fund life-saving cancer research, offer vital information on cancer and provide compassionate support services to people living with cancer and their families.
Help me reach my fundraising goal!
Please pledge me now and join me in the fight against cancer.”

Online pledging is secure and it saves the Society money by reducing administrative costs – it means the money you give can go further to help the fight against cancer.
Haiden thanks for your support and and urges you please to pass along to anyone you think would be interested in supporting me.
