Recipient Profile |
Lori pre cancer with her grandson Jacob. **UPDATED**
This wig fund goal amount has been increased to cover the cost of a 2nd (non custom) wig. It is suggested to have two wigs; one to use as a spare while the primary is being cleaned, styled and maintained.
The additional donations for this wig fund will also be used towards maintenance.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS ALREADY DONATED. YOUR LOVE AND GENEROSITY IS TRULY APPRECIATED!!
In August 2009, Loreli Mulla was diagnosed with brain cancer. It began with the discovery of a tumor on her brain that originally was thought to be benign. It wasn't until the removal surgery that the tumor was determined to be malignant. She is currently undergoing both chemotherapy and radiation treatment, and as a result has lost all of her hair.
Long before her diagnosis, her son Matt had been growing out his hair. Mostly because he thinks (knows) that his long hair totally rocks and is awesome, but also with the ultimate intention of donating to Locks of Love, a charity for children with cancer. With the recent and heartbreaking circumstances being what they are, he now wants to donate his hair to his mother, and have a custom wig made of his hair for her.
For those of you who don't know Lori, she is the most amazing, loving and BEAUTIFUL woman, both inside and out. She has two wonderful children, Matt and Rachel, an ADORABLE grandson Jacob (aka Bubbs), and her faithful, loving husband Angelo. It is our hope to return the feeling of beauty to a truly beautful woman through the gift from a son to his mother.
Anything at all you could donate would be a HUGE blessing! |

Fund Manager Profile |
Matt and I (and his gorgeous locks) back in Feb. His hair is much longer now! My name is Marissa Gallagher, and I am Matt Mulla's girlfriend. I have become very close with the Mulla's over the years, and am very passionate about this fundraiser. Loreli is one of the most beautiful, amazing women I have ever known, and partaking in this effort is nothing less than an honor to me. Matt loves his mom more than anything, and though it would be much cheaper to just go buy a wig, he realizes the significance and healing power this personal gift could have for his mom. |
