Big-hearted schoolgirl donates hair to raise funds for children's charity

A kind-hearted Dublin girl has donated her hair to raise vital funds for a children's charity.

Robyn Von Meding, 10, cut off 14-inches of her strawberry blonde locks today for the Rapunzel Foundation, an organisation that collects hair to make wigs for children and adults with alopecia. Proud mum Roberta told Dublin Live young Robyn is really excited to make a difference in people's lives.

The mum-of-two said: "She likes the idea that someone who may be undergoing chemo or have alopecia will be able to wear her hair. Her hair is stunning. The thing she gets complimented on the most is her hair and she’s really excited that someone can have it."
