On Saturday, December 15, Ducks forward George Parros rallied a
group of nine Ducks fans to help him in the fight against cancer by
having them join him in donating their hair for the inaugural
George Parros Cut for the Kids at the Anaheim Ducks Wild Winger's
Kids Club Party at the Newport Sports Museum.
Since the start of his professional career, Parros has been growing
his hair long so he can donate it to Locks of Love, a nonprofit
organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged
children experiencing medical hair loss. Parros, alongside
Ducks Kids Club members and season seat holders, cut the minimum of
10 inches of hair it takes to create a Locks of Love
hairpiece. Professional hairstylists from TríKo Salon
in Newport Beach were on hand volunteering to cut hair.
The participants of the George Parros Cut for Kids were all extremely generous in their donation. Some took part to show support for a loved one affected by cancer, while others joined as a way to give back to those in need. Each of them, including Parros, helped make an impact for children having the opportunity to receive their Locks of Love. As a special thank you, participants had the opportunity to meet George Parros and received a Parros jersey and signature mustache, along with a great new haircut!
