Sponsor James to cut off his dreadlocks!

ME/CFS Victoria member James Young will cut off his dreadlocks on Saturday 4th of September 2010 to raise money for ME/CFS education and awareness.

During one of his most severe periods of ME/CFS James asked a friend to 'dreadlock' his hair. After battling the condition through his teenage years, the now-20 year old is well, attending university and living a full life. He is now ready to farewell his dreadlocks and move on with his life.

James' friends and family are sponsoring James; for $20 they will be able to cut off a dreadlock, and for $5 they will be able to watch. You can sponsor James too by ringing the ME/CFS Victoria office on (03) 9791 3100 and pledging donations to the James Young Fund. Donations to ME/CFS Victoria $2 and over are tax deductible.

Photos will be available on this website shortly after the event.
