Wigs for Kids provides hair replacement systems to children under the age of 18 who have lost their hair as a result of medical treatments, health conditions, or burn accidents. When children lose their hair, whether as a result of medical treatments, health conditions or burn accidents, they don't just suffer physically. The change in their appearance can drastically undermine their self-image and sabotage their self-esteem. To help heal the pain of these struggles, Certified Cosmetic Therapist Jeffrey Paul founded Wigs for Kids, a nonprofit organization that has been serving children suffering from hair loss since 1981. Wigs for Kids is a cooperative effort among Certified Cosmetic Therapists throughout North America who share a common goal. “Children shouldn’t have to worry about how they look, especially when they’re in the middle of a health crisis,” says Jeffrey Paul. “We want to give these kids the opportunity to feel good about themselves again.” The value of all children’s wigs Hair Replacements is $1,800. “These are custom-made Hair Replacements,” says Jeffrey Paul. “Each prosthesis is hand-tied and is made completely from human hair. We make sure they look just like a child’s own hair.” “They won’t come off on the baseball field or in the playground,” he adds. “Kids can count on them. And because kids look just the way they did before, they feel better about themselves. They look in the mirror and their eyes light up. To see that light in their eyes … that’s priceless.”

Our Mission is to work so that no one is isolated because of Parkinson’s disease. Parkinson’s Resource Organization (PRO) is dedicated to improving quality of life for families and individuals affected by Parkinson’s disease through education, support, and practical resources. PRO was established in 1990 by caregivers who were overwhelmed and struggling to find the support network they needed. So they decided to create one. What started as Children of Parkinson's morphed into Parkinson's Resource Organization and today we continue to maximize quality of life for people with Parkinson's, their families, and caregivers through education, resources, and person-to-person support. PRO works to improve quality of life for everyone impacted by Parkinson’s. We do this through emotional and practical resources, support groups, educational materials, and access to a network of professionals who can provide guidance and assistance. Additionally, we advocate for the needs and rights of caregivers and patients, ensuring they receive the necessary care and resources. Caregivers play a crucial role in the management and support of Parkinson's patients. PRO acknowledges their efforts and aims to equip them with the tools and knowledge required to provide effective care. Through continuous outreach and dedicated services, we strives to create a supportive community where caregivers and patients can find the help and companionship they need.
