Campbell Soup Employees Donate their Locks for the Third Annual Campbell's "Cut-Off"

Jun 21, 2010 6:45 AM CDT

(Justmeans.com / CSR News) - June 21, 2010

Last month women and men from across the U.S. participated in a ponytail and fundraising drive to help create wigs for people with cancer and other serious diseases.

For the third annual "Cut-Off," employees were invited to donate six or more inches of their hair at an event on May 25 at World Headquarters in Camden, N.J. They could also donate their hair before or after the event. 

No hair? No problem. Those who weren't able to donate their locks could donate money or support their colleagues by attending the live "Cut-Off" event.

The event yielded $3500 and 40 people cut off their locks, including employees from World Headquarters, the Maxton, N.C. Plant, the Campbell Sales Company and Pepperidge Farm, leading to a donation of 300 inches of hair.

The hair and money collected was donated to Locks of Love and Pantene's Beautiful Lengths program.
