“Erin likes Ronald McDonald House [so] she thought she would raise money for the cause,” hairdresser manager Christie Black told the Warragul & Baw Baw Citizen.

Ronald McDonald House provides help to seriously ill children and their families.

Ms Richardson’s shave raised over $1,000 for the support service.

Ms Black said the community response to the event was good.

“Members of the community donated money for months in the lead-up to Erin’s shave,” she said.

One in eight Australians have been helped by Ronald McDonald House or know someone who has used their programs.
