Wigs 4 Kids is very proud of our beautiful Jaeleen Davis, longtime wig recipient and Ambassador spokesperson for our program. Jaeleen has been through much in her young life and continues to triumph over adversities & tragedies. She nearly lost her life this year when falling 30 feet onto a concrete slab and has recovered to walk again, sing at our annual gala and return to her pageant circle. Jaeleen's university wrote an inspiring piece about her life, challenges & successes and we are pleased to share it with our supporters:
