Several canoeist signed up for Hair for Hope. We were nervous but we knew that our effort, though small, was still a difference made for the children in Singapore stricken with cancer. Joel, Ryan, Xin yang, Russell, Peter, Qin hong, Jon, Zeus, Ruizhi, Luke, Yi qing, Nigel, me and yes, even our very own teacher in charge, signed up for this. These brave souls, where appearance is important at this age( except Mr Teo) , were willing to give it up for charity. We felt that this was something we had to do and the experience of going into the public bald would definitely help us understand how the cancer patients feel, at the same time spread the message that there are children out there with cancer who could use Singapore's aid. I hope that this experience will help us, as Josephians, as canoeists, as men for others to realise that there are people out there who need our care and our friendship, not our pity and discrimination.
