Three Wairarapa College students have proven their dedication to caring about others.
David Bellami, 13, Christian Neumann, 14 and Josiah Reid, 14, shaved their heads at Ray's Barbershop in Kuripuni on Monday to raise money for the Wairarapa Cancer Society.
The best friends and cricket teammates took the bold move after Christian was inspired by photos of people shaving their heads for cancer last year.
"I did it because other people are unfortunate -- it raises awareness for cancer."
Christian's grandmother died of cancer and an aunt also suffers from the disease.
