Newcomb Cuts hair For Charity

One little girl with a big heart did a big thing today.Kneviah Newcomb cut her hair today to donate it Angel Hair for Kids Foundation. She's originally St. Stephen but now lives in Eastport Maine.

Newcomb is only ten old and tells Tide News she was inspired by a friend in the past who had cancer and at that time offered her hair.

Since then kneviah has only received trims to her hair and has grown it long and today with the help of Tammy Mersereau from Talk Of The Town in St. Stephen Newcomb cut her hair and will donate about 12 inches to the foundation.

In addition this ten year old girl has managed to also raise just over $400.00 dollars to send to the Angel Hair for kids foundation. It takes about 10 hair cuts to make one wig for a child in need.
