Thank You

To all of our followers, whose love and support we could not do without. 

 As I had mentioned at the First Annual i have. i give. Extravaganza, days before the big event the team and I were discussing what we would do if we did not meet our goal of $1,100, little did we know the tremendous generosity that we would receive. With all of your love, support and generous donations we greatly surpassed that goal and were able to raise $2,300. I cannot even begin to tell you how much the i have. i give. team and myself appreciate your generosity and your willingness to give of what you have. We were all so blown away by your support and your donations and we cannot thank you enough for your kindness. With the money that was raised, both at the Wiggin Out event, and at the First Annual, we were able to provide Children with Hairloss two hair replacement treatments and kits. With the additional money left over we purchased a King Soopers gift card for a struggling family in financial need, as the husband was recently diagnosed with lymphoma, he is 29.
 We greatly appreciate all of your donations, and we recognize and applaud your willingness to give during a very difficult financial time. More so than anything, however, we would like to recognize and thank each and every one of you that attended Wiggin Out and/or the First Annual i have. i give. Extravaganza. We would also like to thank you all for your unrelenting support of the i have. i give. project. Since our first event, word has slowly spread and the awareness of what the i have. i give. project is hoping to accomplish has begun to catch on. At my work alone, one young woman donated 8 1/2" of her beautiful hair yesterday to Children with Hairloss, another friend of mine, Megan Avery, works at a salon in Durango called Lemon Head, and they donated 12 ponytails this past week to Children with Hairloss. Not to mention my brave cousin Kelli Bucci, who graciously donated her own beautiful blonde locks on the night of the event!
  As the founder of the i have. i give. Project I cannot begin to express my pride for the six wonderful women (Ashley, Erica, Jessica, Katie, Kendall, and Stevie) who have stepped up and dedicated their time and effort to help me accomplish this dream, but as a team we recognize that we would not be able to accomplish our goals if it was not for the love and support that we receive and hope to continue to receive from such people as yourselves. Thank you again so much for giving of what you have.
 
With much love,
Andrea and the i have. i give. team
