Infinite Love Connecticut Events
INFINITE LOVE MANE EVENT- Last year, Trumbull High School in Trumbull, CT, hosted the first ever Infinite Love Mane Event. A total of 42 participants, both student and faculty, chopped off 125 ponytails - that’s 1,083 inches of hair - and raised a whopping $32,014. Many of our previous participants are still growing out their hair and don’t have enough to donate this year.
Senior Jessie Marchetti has been eagerly growing out her hair for over a year and took on this year’s Mane Event. She cut her hair on Wednesday, October 16 at 6pm at Moda Capelli Salon in Fairfield, CT. She achieved way over 100% of her lofty goal of $10,000- raising over $13,000 to fight Childhood Cancer.
Here is the Infinite Love for Kids Fighting Cancer Facebook Live event. Meet Jessie, Jim, Regina (event coordinator and long time IL volunteer), and all of the kids helping kids on a such a fantastic night!
Check out this video where, Infinite Love Vice President, Jim McCaffrey, interviews Jessie and learns about what motivates her. At the end of the video, people close to her share testimonials about how inspiring Jessie has been to them.

CHILDHOOD CANCER AWARENESS MONTH- Infinite Love Junior Board Events Chair and Trumbull High School Senior, Jaime Tolk led an initiative that raised funds and awareness during September. She rallied students in Trumbull to wear PJs for Pediatrics on a day of their choice. The students and faculty at elementary schools, middle schools and high school wore their pajamas to school in the first PJ’s for Pediatrics.
While raising awareness for childhood cancer, the schools also engaged in a friendly competition to see who can raise the most money. Who raised more: the big kids or the little kids?
OCTOBER 6- Marian, James, Miles, and Jim McCaffrey ran with Team Anna for the SoNo Half Marathon & 5K and raised money and awareness. Donation link is here.
THANK YOU- To all of those who make the Tutu Trot a success in June.
