On October 18th, students at Alexandra Primary School unleashed their creativity for a special "Crazy Hair Day" fundraiser, all in support of Niemann-Pick Awareness Month! The event encouraged students to bring a gold coin donation in exchange for showcasing their wildest, wackiest hairstyles, transforming the school grounds into a sea of colorful, spiky, and unique hairdos.
Organised by Carly, a dedicated ANPDF committee member and mum, this fundraiser not only allowed students to have some lighthearted fun but also served a meaningful purpose. Through the students' generous contributions, Alexandra Primary School raised $136, which will help support the mission of ANPDF to spread awareness and offer support for those impacted by Niemann-Pick Disease.
Niemann-Pick Disease is a rare, genetic condition, and initiatives like Crazy Hair Day are vital to shining a light on this lesser-known illness. The silver awareness ribbon for Niemann-Pick Disease symbolises the resilience of families and communities united in this cause, and Alexandra Primary School's Crazy Hair Day was a beautiful display of support.
Thank you to all the students, teachers, and families who participated, and especially to Carly for organizing this fun and impactful event! Together, we’re making a difference, one crazy hairstyle at a time!
Let's keep up the great work and continue to support our Niemann-Pick community!
Special Thanks to the Alexandra Primary School for supporting the Niemann-Pick Community in Australia.
