WIGS FOR ALL History

WIGS FOR ALL
Slogan

1971 - Charlie Moultrie, a friend @ 15 years old, who found out too late he had testicular cancer, only to live less than a year.  Charlie did not like loosing his hair during chemotherapy. The wigs his mother bought were just a joke to him.  A true friend who stirred my desire to help cancer patients like us.

1996 - Beth Israel Three, a group of women, in clinic, waiting for chemotherapy who's weekly conversations centered on their loss of hair and the impact it had on their lives, personally and privately.  Never a word about conversations with their own doctors, new treatment developments, or any cutting edge cancer developments.

2001 - Plans for the creation of a non-discriminatory organization for wigs for cancer,breast cancer,alopecia areata and other diseases where hair loss affects recovery begins.  But with the tragic loss of 9/11 plans are put on hold for five years.

2005 & 2006 Foundation research and development. Contacting others to help in creating WIGS FOR ALL

2007 - December - WIGS FOR  ALL A reality with Timothy's haircut of 26 inches in December.  WIGS FOR ALL is established.

2008 - January  - Calls begin to arrive asking for more information on WIGS FOR ALL.  4 Applications sent out to requesters.  We found out social workers in California have found our website and put a flyer together.  Hats Off to you.   Started incorporation of WIGS FOR ALL.   Started the application for 501-3-C non-profit status to help get wigs to patients sooner and accept donations.
