Jason Lioh Pledges His Hair For Hospice

Friday, October 28th, 2005

The Hair For Hospice quintet warmly welcomes Jason Lioh to the team. He has pledged to shave his head for this cause. Jason blogs at Jason Mumbles. He also makes a mean pot of soya bean milk. Jason and Jason will be shaving their heads in Melaka as both of them are studying in the same university. It is truly heartening to see fine young men like them having hearts of gold. This is a good example of using blogs positively to help those in need. Read why Jason is doing this in his entry titled Jason’s Hair For Peter’s “Hair For Hospice.”

Devyne Pledges Her Hair For Hospice

What do you know? The Hair For Hospice campaign has on board a woman who pledged to shave her head together with the four of us. Devyne of Profound Sentiments of the Demented Soul had mulled over it, intimated to me about about that decision, informed her family and friends and here she is, pledging to give up her crowning glory to a cause that I believe in, one that she now believes in too. It took great courage on her part to give it all up for the Hospice. It is difficult enough to get men to shave their head, let alone a woman. Devyne made a big sacrifice and I applaud her for that. Devyne may lose her hair but the proceeds from this campaign will go towards helping many who will be losing their life. What giving up a headful of hair compared to comforting those who are waiting for their time?
