Locks of Love: How One Mother Built a Hair Donation Nonprofit
About this episode
Madonna Coffman shares her journey of creating Locks of Love after her daughter experienced hair loss.
On this episode of Our American Stories, Madonna Coffman had already experienced hair loss once as a young woman. Years later, when her four-year-old daughter began losing her hair, she didn’t need a diagnosis to know what was coming or how difficult it would be. What she couldn’t find was something designed for a child trying to live a normal life, so she set out to create it herself. That effort became Locks of Love .
