Review for Children's Alopecia Project, Wyomissing, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was diagnosed with alopecia areata when I was 4 in 2004. My parents didn’t know what to do and being so young I was just confused. My parents quickly found the children’s alopecia project. I was one of the first to join the organization and could not have felt more at home. As I got older, I went around without a wig because of the newfound confidence I’d been given by meeting other kids with the condition. This organization brought me confidence through meeting other people like me and gave me the chance to give back to the community. After going to CAP events and meetings for a few years I was able to start to give back by giving a speech about my experience and being on a kids panel. Overall this organization has helped me to be confident in my own condition and give back to the alopecia community by sharing my experience and helping others cope in any way I can. It has helped me be confident in myself for 15 years and I know it is continuing to do the same for now millions on kids and their families struggling with this issue. I recommend this organization strongly to anyone who has alopecia and anyone who wants to donate to an amazing non profit.
