As you've probably discovered, most organizations which take hair donations typically require the hair to be at least 10" long. The Canadian Cancer Society has compiled a list of organizations which accept hair donations and it looks like they've added some which will take hair that's 8" long. Take a look:

I hope your hair can be put to good use. The thought and the effort will definitely be appreciated.
