This is Ziggy Tigris. She is 8. She’s been real keen to shave her head and raise money for kids that aren’t as lucky as she. So…she did. She chose her charity
@makeawishaust , we started a
@gofundmeau , we’ve had many conversations about privilege, body autonomy, donating money within our means, wig making, meaningful wishes, internalised misogyny, body image, gender norms, my body my choice, being safe, health, people we know, making a difference and also Sinead O’Connor, empire records, punk and being a total badass.
Ziggy has raised over $4k and donations are still open.
She had her head shaved a few days ago by our dear buddy
@hair_by_jess_mazzarino . There were tears of excitement and nerves and pride and overwhelm as Ziggy’s choice of Black Sabbath, Iron Man, boomed in the background.
We’re all so proud of this little human. She’s cool and wise and thoughtful beyond her years.
Yesterday she said she will take the stares of other kids if it means she can support people who have to go through really hard things. To everyone fighting the real fight, this little noggin is for you.
Cool vid made by Ziggy’s dad
@open_riffs and music by zig’s fave band (also her dad’s band)

Head to the link to donate and thank you so much to everyone who already has. Ziggy has kept track of all of you and she thinks you’re the bees knees. She’s right ❤️🔥
