What do you think of this 11-year-old's chosen cause?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Whangamatā 11-year-old has placed his award-winning mullet up for auction to raise money for Starship Hospital.

Kahū Hall, who named himself ‘Taco’ when he was three years old, is selling his mullet after growing it for three years. Taco said he was motivated to raise the money after his friend Evie Taylor stayed at Starship Hospital for a heart operation.

What do you think of this 11-year-old's chosen cause? Tell us in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
