Donations Needed!

#AnnualCAPAppeal

We desperately need your help! The mission of CAP is to help all children with alopecia, and we will continue do everything in our power to keep CAP Kids free at all camps and events.  Charitable giving is at an all-time low, and CAP, like many non-profits, is facing significant financial challenges that could compromise our ability to continue providing free programs and camps for children with alopecia. Alopeciapalooza and all of CAP’s programs are changing lives, and it won’t be the case without the continued support of donors like you!

Alopeciapalooza our large annual international camps for children with alopecia and their families as well as our regional CAP Kid Camps held in California, Colorado, Washington State, Texas, Florida, Indiana, Wisconsin, Rhode Island, and North Carolina where all kids and teens attend for free and we have never said no if a family could not attend because of financial problems.
  2. CAP2U Speaking Tours where we speak at up to 80 schools and locations utilizing our CAP Kid Library Program, through which CAP is donating books about alopecia to a child with alopecia to donate to their school library.
