Laura's Legacy: Free Wigs Bring Hope to Cancer Fighters
27 Jun
Summary
- A non-profit provides free wigs to cancer patients lacking financial means.
- The organization accepts and sanitizes donated wigs for redistribution.
- It was founded to honor Laura Huffman's battle with cancer.

A new non-profit, Loving Laura's Curls, was established on June 23 to provide vital support to cancer patients within the community. This organization focuses on offering high-quality wigs at no cost to individuals who may not have the financial resources to acquire them independently. The initiative is dedicated to restoring confidence and dignity to those undergoing cancer treatment.
Founded in honor of Laura Huffman's 48th birthday, the non-profit operates as a donation and gifting center. They collect gently used wigs, which are then meticulously cleaned and sanitized before being delivered to cancer patients. This endeavor stems from Laura Huffman's personal battle with cancer, during which she received immense support from friends who helped her acquire her first wig, which cost over a thousand dollars.
After Laura's passing in March, her husband, Josh Huffman, discovered several high-quality wigs among her belongings. He collaborated with Vanessa Wilson, a salon owner and Laura's friend, to establish Loving Laura's Curls. The organization aims to embody Laura's generous spirit by enabling others to pay forward the blessings she received during her own challenging journey, ensuring that no one fighting cancer has to face it without the dignity of a wig.
