The New York boys had to endure the insults and taunts of their peers, but when their mother found out, she cut their hair. The others felt ashamed and broke down in tears as they realized what had motivated them to let their hair down.
Two pairs of twins, a 10-year-old and a sixth boy who is not a brother, reside in Cheektowaga, New York. All six children have let their hair grow out long, which has resulted in daily bullying by their classmates.
The six children had an excellent reason for growing out their hair. Even their parents didn’t know why they made the decision they did. They were young, but they had a very good reason.
They were proud of their close family buddy who was their age. They remembered clearly that their friend had lost his hair due to cancer treatment before he passed away. The cancer had taken this friend’s life. They decided to help the young children affected by this terrible sickness and experiencing hair loss since they were so heartbroken about the loss of their friend.
They decided to find a nonprofit in their friend’s honor that would offer wigs to children whose hair is lost due to cancer treatments. The organization would be known as “Buddy’s Wigs for Kids.” They wished to restore some of the confidence cancer had taken away from these young people and make them feel like themselves once more.
