I lost my hair for a few years due to leukemia and I had a ton of fun getting brightly colored wigs. Tho mine were the cheap kind and not made from real hair.
Edit: Yes, OP's hair is very beautiful, but some of y'all in the comment section should not be treating a shaved head like a tragedy. Makes those of us who didn't get a choice about it--ie the very people OP is trying to help--feel shitty.
Can I ask who you are donating to? I was always told colored hair is not good to donate, but I guess that has changed after reading some of these comments. Wondering if graying hair is accepted more now as well. Used to be only accepted if it was under a certain percent of gray. I need to cut my hair this year and it was going to be my last time donating because of the graying. I'd gladly grow it out again if I knew someone would accept it.
Oh, and before I forget, I'm glad you reached your goal and good luck with the snip snip tomorrow! Hope it helps bring a smile to someone else! It costs nothing but shampoo (and hair dye I guess) to grow your hair out, but the benefits to others is immense. Thank You for being You!

Get you makeup done before you get it buzzed. My ex did that and it made her feel better about the situation. Just thought I’d mention it.
