We had the honor and privilege today to reconnect with Barrett and his team at Berkley Fit Body Boot Camp for a special interview that will be showcased as part of his next hair donation journey at a corporate conference in Las Vegas this summer. Barrett first started supporting our program in 2015 and was deeply touched by the impact it has on the children in our communities. Since then, he has formed his own nonprofit MiGift to support foster kids in need through holiday gifts and continues to give back to local charities like Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan. What an inspiration!
