Blood cancer is Australia's hidden cancer crisis. Today, there are 150,000 families facing blood cancer, and 17 Australians will lose their life. Every year, thousands of Australians step up to shave, cut, or colour their hair and raise funds in support of those affected.
Every dollar powers the work of the Leukaemia Foundation, bringing care closer to Australians with blood cancer. From practical support services like accommodation and financial assistance to emotional support and education, the funds raised help fuel real, tangible change for those who need it most.

“When they started to shave my head, I felt so empowered. This fundraiser allowed me to lose my hair with my family and closest friends by my side in what was such an emotional and heart-warming day.”

“After 5 years of growing it, I donated 90cm of [my] hair to be made into a wig. Thank you, Mum, for giving me the idea. As hard as it was to chop it off, compared to your eleven-year battle, this is the least I could do."
