Brittani and her family have been following 10-year-old Briana’s journey on social media as she battles bone cancer. Brittani decided she wanted to help Briana.
“I want to help Briana get better and also I have the choice and she doesn't to lose hair,” said Brittani
Brittani’s mother, Kendra Perkins, suggested in jest that Brittani could shave her head, an idea that Brittani ran with. She shaved her head alongside her father and grandfather, refusing to back out of the commitment she’d made.
Brittani fundraised $2200 dollars, which she has donated to a trust fund set up by Briana’s grandparents.
The money will be used to support Briana, providing for her needs as she undergoes treatment.
“We couldn’t be any prouder of our child, a 10-year-old little girl that gives up her hair for another child just to raise funds, for a child she doesn't even know,” said Ms Perkins.
