CULIAT, THROUGH its flagship community project Brave Lengths, aims to collect at least 100 sets of hair donations to be turned into wigs for cancer patients. Brave Lengths is launched in collaboration with YMCA’s program “Strands of Hope”, a project established to be a venue for pooling resources and encouraging other people to donate their hair to become a wig. The project is led by LO Auditor Danielle Morales who has partnered with local salons for the collection of cut hair.
The project also encourages the donation of plywood and plastic bottles to build a stand for the wigs, which is part of the after-care for the wigs produced. Culiat and the project committee recognizes how exhausting battling the Big C can be. It is in this essence that, as one of the leaders of the community, Culiat understands how the project may aid in the battle, in its little ways. Brave Lengths is an ongoing project and is still open for hair donations as of writing.
