Laura had thought about shaving her head for years. When she heard about Isagenix's Make-A-Wish Month of May, the stars aligned and she decided to take the plunge - and make it part of something bigger.

After taking part in a Wish Workshop in early 2019, Laura knew that she wanted to do more to support Make-A-Wish, especially having worked with kids for ten years and with ambitions to become a midwife.

“I think the work that Make-A-Wish do is phenomenal. Their service is unparalleled, and it just makes sense to do as much as I can for them while I could,” Laura says.

Contribution and giving back has always been at the forefront of Laura’s mind, donating $10 to Make-A-Wish with her Isagenix Autoship (workplace giving program) every month, along a host of other notable charitable acts.

“I’ve done some work with cancer research in the past. But my biggest contribution was helping build huts and distribute food in Calais during the refugee crisis.”

Not only will Laura raise funds to help make wishes of seriously ill children come true, but she’ll also be donating her hair to Little Princess to create wigs for children going through chemotherapy or with alopecia.

“Because my hair is long, there’s definitely a little girl out there that wants it more than me,” she says.

Even though Laura is determined to see this through, she did admit to having second thoughts about her decision.

“I’ve had a couple of days where I’ve woken up and thought ‘Oh my god, what am I doing?’” she says. “But when it comes down to it I don’t regret it and I will never back out!”

One of the biggest things that led Laura to Isagenix is the amazing community, and she hopes that they’ll dig deep to help reach the goal of $50,000 to make five incredible wishes come to life.
