Why we Rock a Chop
The Ponytail Project isn’t just about losing your hair—it’s about gaining a sense of pride and purpose. It’s about standing in solidarity with the families and individuals who are battling cancer every day. For many of us, this fight is personal. Almost everyone knows someone close—a family member or a friend —who has been affected by cancer. It’s a disease that hits home for so many of us, and through this project, we have the chance to support those who are going through some of the toughest times in their lives.
This project is student-driven, which means we are leading the charge. By taking part, you’re joining a community of students committed to remembering those we’ve lost and supporting those still fighting. Every ponytail cut, every dollar raised, and every conversation sparked by this project makes a difference. It’s about showing that, as students, we can come together to create real, positive change in the world.

Josh this is a very kind, precious thing to do and I hope someone deserving is made a wonderful wig with your beautiful hair. Your Aunty's death also could have been avoided if she had kept up with her regular medical checkups. She was too embarrassed to have them for whatever reason.
