Fundraising calls for sacrifices…

Today was a rather terrifying day for me and heralded quite a change in appearance…
I got my hair shaved off to raise money for my journey to China to teach English for a year. I had (almost wrote have-I haven’t quite grasped the concept of now being nearly bald yet) very long hair and always have had fairly long hair, but now its all gone in order to bring me one step closer to my fundraising target. Just to give you a little idea of just how much a drastic change this was for me, look at this…

I Can’t say I’m a big fan of my new appearance, but sacrifices need to be made when you need to somehow raise over ┬ú5000.
To those who are wishing for a new post that is a bit more creative than the last few, I assure you that they are on their way. 🙂

    1. thank you, it certainly is. I ended up raising around £250 for this event, so that, although a large sum of money, is only 5% of the way to completing my target.

  1. Aww bless, it is a sacrifice! I wish you all the best from core of my heart! Can I ask? Does it really help generate funds? Asking since, it’s different here. I mean I had really long locks a couple of months ago and I paid quiet a decent amount to the hair dresser instead.

    1. thank you; it does work as long as the hair cut is from one extreme to the other, as it was in my case; my hair was very long and it is now practically gone. It’s also sometimes possible to sell hair online if it is both long enough and in good enough condition.
