Rutgers WBB Assistant Coach Donates 'Locks'
Nov 22 | Women's Basketball
PISCATAWAY, N.J. - Rutgers women's basketball assistant coach Marianne Stanley gave something back during this busy holiday season, her hair.
Four years ago, the second-year Scarlet Knights assistant coach watched a segment on Locks of Love, the nonprofit organization which hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children with cancer, on the Oprah Winfrey Show. Stanley decided to start the growth process.
On Tuesday at Voi Salon in East Brunswick, stylist April Slover chopped off 11 inches of Stanley's hair - for a good cause. The salon offers no charge for the cut and takes care of mailing the hair to the organization. For her generosity, Stanley will receive a certificate of thanks while a child in need will benefit in the future.
