After growing his hair for two-and-a-half years, 10-year-old Noah decided it was time to cut it off for something different.

The Hillside resident decided that while he didn’t want his hair anymore, it could help other people.

“I just felt like I wanted to get it cut off,” he said.

“My mum asked me if I wanted to donate my hair and I decided I wanted to.”

His hair will be used for a wig, while he’s been raising money for the Make A Wish Foundation.

Noah decided that he wanted to give to children who really needed it.

As of last Thursday, he had raised more than $1000 beating his initial goal of $200.

“I just want to see how I can get now.”

Noah will have his hair cut on Saturday and is already planning to grow it again and raise more money to help others.
