2026 SJSP
Eyebrows/Hair for
Food Challenge
What would you do to feed 1,355 starving children for a year?
These SJSP 2026 Instructors and Volunteers are willing
to shave their eyebrows and/or heads!
Welcome to our 2026 Eyebrows/Hair for Food Challenge
to feed hungry children through Mary's Meals!
Vote with your dollars! All money will go to Mary's Meals to feed 1,355 children at Chaone Primary School in Malawi for an entire year. Over the past eight years we've raised nearly $250,000 for Mary's Meals, with most of that through our Eyebrow Challenge. Our staff has expanded our Eyebrow Challenge to include hair. We'll trade our eyebrows/hair for food to feed these children! Our head/hair... your money... their food! To vote, just click on one of the links below, which will take you to our Mary's Meals donation page. In the "public message" box, note the staff member's name and whether you want your donation to go toward shaving or saving his/her eyebrows or head! Eyebrow/Hair status can be viewed below. Red means danger! Green means safe! "Save" money will be added to the balance and "Shave" money will be deducted from the balance. Voting ends Friday morning, July 24th, at 8:30am. Instructors with a positive (green) balance will keep their eyebrows/hair. Instructors with a negative (red) balance will lose their eyebrows/hair that morning on the morning show! You can vote online by clicking HERE or by donating in person at camp.
100% of the money raised will go to Mary's Meals!

Mega kudos to these ladies and gentlemen who gave their eyebrows, hair, and both in order to feed hungry children!
