AAAF would like to thank all the staff and children at Boroondara Park Primary School for promoting awareness of Alopecia Areata at their crazy hair day and raising $1250.00. Special thanks to Penelope & Tess.

Jesse helps to promote awareness for Awareness Week. Jesse is 7 and I have attached a photo of Jesse wearing a t-shirt he designed himself, it reads- "Please don't stare... it's just no hair." The West Australian has decided to run a story and photo of Jesse.  Jesse sister Paris is talking at their school to inform the students on Alopecia Areata. I think Jess should Patent his design!!
