KEARNS — Students at Entheos Academy, a charter school, Friday hosted a fundraiser for Locks of Love.
During a school assembly, anyone with 10 or more inches of hair to spare lined up to get it cut off, all in the name of charity.
"I'm kind of glad, and kind of sad about it, that I'm going to cut (my hear)," one girl said. "but I'm glad I'm going to donate it."
Locks of Love is a nonprofit organization that collects human hair for hair prosthetics that will go to kids in the United States and in Canada.
Entheos has participated in this fundraiser since 2008. Teachers and students donate their hair for cancer patients.
