When Ashlyn was diagnosed with a rare life threatening blood disorder at the age of 10 and told she needed a bone marrow transplant, one of her biggest fears was losing her hair. Luckily her family discovered the halo wig, a wig that was made using Ashlyn's very own hair. Wearing this wig and being able to feel normal around her friends made such a difference in Ashlyn's recovery that she knew she had to do something to help other children. This is how Crowns of Courage was born!
Crowns of Courage is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping children overcome the fear of chemotherapy related hair loss. We provide halo wigs to any child undergoing chemotherapy, at no cost to the family.
