Andrew DiSimone was voted "New Yorker of the Week" for donating wigs to those with medical hair loss, such as cancer, alopecia and skin burns.

FreeWigsforKids.org is a non-profit program founded by Andrew DiSimone. Through this program , Andrew "prescribes" wigs to patients that cannot afford to purchase a wig. He also cuts/styles the wig, and teaches them how to care for it in his Manhattan hair salon. For those that do purchase a wig, Andrew helps them file an insurance claim.

With your help, we can make a new wig for a child in need. We accept gently-used wigs, ponytails and monetary donations.
