About Us
The Australia Alopecia Areata Foundation (AAAF) is the peak body for providing support to those with Alopecia Areata and their families, creating awareness about Alopecia Areata and funding research toward a cure or acceptable treatment.
Since 2012, AAAF have provided 125 families with financial support to purchase a wig, at a cost of $92,000. Help us achieve our goal of supporting 200 families by 2017.
The AAAF runs entirely on the work of volunteers, and 100% of money raised goes towards realising our mission.
