Help me take a stand against blood cancer
Right now, over 170,000 Australians are facing the devastating impact of blood cancer, and 17 lose their life every single day.
When I was six years old my family and I unfortunately felt the impact of blood cancer personally when my father passed away after a year long struggle. Since this happened at the very beginning of my schooling I thought it was a fitting time to do worlds greatest shave now that I am in my final year before graduating and only a few days before my fathers death anniversary.
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.
Thanks for having your say
