A $9,500 haircut

This is a story of one haircut, more than 20 years in the making, that raised almost $10,000 for charity.

Cole Keffer – or “Goldilocks” as he's known to his UBC rugby teammates – decided to get his first ever haircut to support Childhood Cancer Canada.

Through online and in-person fundraising, Keffer has raised more than $9,500. In front of teammates, friends and family, he cut off his curls for the kids.

“I feel pretty good. I almost feel lighter,” said Keffer after his haircut. “I didn’t think I’d feel this different, but I like it. It’s good."
