Hair Chop, Sky Dive & Leg Wax for Charity

    Basically, I'm originally from Gorey but I'm moving uo to Rye Hall on the 14th Sept...

    I'm chopping off all of my long, curly hair to give it to a charity that makes wigs for kids with cancer (the Little Princess Trust)

    I'm having a charity night on 26th September in the Mezz bar, Gorey- I'll be having my hair chopped, and a number of my male friends (my boyfriend who is also getting it done, Jack Longmire, is also starting in Maynooth in September) will be having their legs waxed... I'll also be jumping out of a plane later in the year for the same cause!

    All of the money we raise is going to the New Dawn charity to support their orphanage in India and also help with suicide prevention and depression in Ireland.

    If anyone is able to sponsor me, even just the price of a pint, I would really really appreciate it.

    My email address is louisefeaheny@gmail.com if you want to find out more. I'll be living in Maynooth from the 14th September so if you want to know more about the charity, the fundraising, the charity night etc, give me a shout!

    Otherwise, you can post the donation to my work address (I work for New Dawn's magazine, Holistic Health)

    Louise Feaheny,
    17 Thomas St,
    Gorey,
    Co Wexford

    Please spread the word if you can, as this is such a huge cause... (and I love my hair!! but the little kids with cancer will appreciate it more than I will!)



    Thank you so much xXx

    This was a pic of my hair a few months ago, so it's a good bit longer since then! It's usually mad curly too icon_biggrin.gif

    I'm from Gorey and I'm ashamed to say I don't recognise you...... :( I used to know everyone*.....I suppose I'm getting old. :pac:

    Anyways, come along to one of the many nights out we're planning and I'll give you a few bob.

    OR

    Accost me on the streets or on campus if you see me. Shake me down for money if you have to.

    edit: you could hassle me at Clubs und Socs day, I'll be at the music stand. This happens after your hair cutting, but sure I'll sponsor your plane jump.

    *Could possibly be hyperbole.

    direction???:D


    hee hee thank u


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,352 ✭✭✭funky penguin


    See here for a pic, I'm on the left. Actually.....if you see the other guy feel free to hassle him as well, tell him Seán sent you.

    Best bet though is to come along on one of the nights out, or get me at teh Music Soc stand on fairs day.

    oooh cool i might just do that! I'll probably be at the music soc stand anyway to have a bit of an auld look... probably just look though... im kinda musically retarded... i sing and got an A2 in the LC music, but that was after my teacher told me that she had given up all hope of me passing... thank frick for the practical, it dragged me through!

    My boyfriends Jack and Colin (jack's actually my boyfriend but colin's always with us too, so its like i have 2 :)) are both doing music so they'll be there anyway!

    I'm broke as hell, but I'd get the legs waxes if it raised some money. Could help with the collection a bit too.

    Can't do the sky dive. My mam's best friend growing up was called Robert, and when my I was 3 weeks away from being born he died when his parachute didn't open. She went into labour when she got the news. Hence my name. Don't want to mess with karma.

    I'd really really hugely appreciate it if you could help with collecting or spreading the word!! that'd be fantastic! The charity night is in Gorey though, so I wouldn't expect you to come down to get your legs waxed!!
    Thanks for tellnig me that about the parachute, just as I'm planning to do one :) I'm already paranoid enough as it is! that really sucks...

    Thank you so much for your help though!! if you really do wanna help with collecting and stuff, send me an email and I could forward some sponsor cards and stuff?? thank you so much!!!:)

    ah sure then we're bound to see each other so you can get the donation, whats your group?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭PrivateEye


    I find stuff like this heartwarming, you should throw a fundraiser of some form in The Venue, there's enough brains on here to help you advertise it/get the numbers and hopefully, make a few bob.

    I am poor as a banker at the minute, but come college I'll be sure to try throw a few bob towards this. Well done.

    @Louise: Friendly tip! You may want to tone down that signature before a mod sees it. Pic is too big for the boards.ie signature rules (to stop everyone having painfully large and epilepsy-inducing sigs). :)

    I'm not sure where I am. I'm still waiting for my lease :(. The email said "R22G" but I'm not sure how to interpret that XD [I hope it's not really simple and I've just made a fool of myself :p].
    I'm probably going to move up either Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on how prepared I am... As of this moment, I'm completely unprepared. XD
