Don is Shaving Again... 13 years straight! Help me take a stand against blood cancer

Hi Friends - please continue to support me with this very important fundraising event. This will be my 13th consecutive year of shaving my hair, and I'm just as proud this year as the very first year I decided to take part. The need for fundraising events like this one will never stop, as researchers keep working relentlessly to improve the outcomes of all cancer sufferers.

Right now, over 150,000 Australians are facing the devastating impact of blood cancer, and 17 lose their life every single day. 

That’s why I’m taking on the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave. By donating to my page, you’ll help me raise funds and awareness for blood cancer, and fuel life-changing research projects and support services for patients and their families.  

Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.
