Liam Frisch of Heidelberg Township, a kindergarten student in Carolann Green’s class at Northwestern Elementary, will attend first grade in the fall.

A member of Cub Scout Pack 588, Liam plays lacrosse, enjoys art and video games, and playing outside.

Right after the COVID-19 pandemic, he started growing out his hair.

Soon after, he learned there were sick kids who can’t grow their own hair, and it became his mission to donate his hair to Locks of Love.

According to the Locks of Love website, “Locks of Love is devoted to helping every child suffering from medical hair loss, thus we do not discriminate as to the cause of hair loss.”
