Local Man Raises Over $2,100 With Haircut Towards Cancer Research
/It may be the most rewarding haircut for Justin Armitage as he raised over $2,100 in support of Peterborough Regional Health Center Foundation for cancer care on Tuesday afternoon.
The money is going towards Couture Candy PTBO’s fundraiser campaign with a goal of $10,000 (which has already been reached).
Armitage raised money as a tribute to a friend he lost to cancer roughly a decade ago.
“It was a hard thing to deal with,” he said. “This is just a great way to make me keep his memory alive and makes me feel like I'm contributing to something.”
