The 11yearold has had only two professional hair cuts all her life. During the first cut, she donated over ten inches of hair to Locks of Love. Her parents weren't the ones who encouraged her to do it.
揥hen I was four years old, I saw it on TV. A little girl was donating it on the news and I told my mom I wanted to do ite,” said Jennifer Buckingham.
It took over three years to grow enough hair to donate, but Jennifer didn't mind the wait. Jennifer's mom, Janice Buckingham and other family members watched the process. Janice couldn't be more proud of her daughter.
“I think it's wonderful that she would care enough about strangers and wants to do something for them,” said Janice Buckingham.
The barber shop named Great Clips offers the Locks of Love program for anyone who is interested in donating their hair. They perform a free haircut and send the donation to Locks of Love.
“It's a good cause and kids are more affected by loss of hair than adults are,” said Great Clips Manager Lisa Beard.
It'll be another three years before Jennifer gets to donate again. Until then, her smile will spread to another child who will be grateful for her donation. Surely, this is a meaningful cause. The world will be a better place to live in if everyone offers his love.
1. According to the passage, Locks of Love is an organization that provides hair pieces to children who ______.
