Help me take a stand against blood cancer

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.

Your Impact

Help me earn the Transportation badge. That's enough to provide a month of free transport for people who are too ill to drive after chemotherapy treatment.

I’m $1,471 away from my next impact milestone. Please help me reach it.

Finding out about Leukemia

Thursday 13th Feb
I was about 7 years old when I first heard about Leukemia, a boy in my year at Junior school had it. He was often off school, too sick to attend. There were no treatments back then and sadly he died around aged 8 or 9.
In my 20’s I met a woman whose sister had died of Leukemia, aged about 11, again there were no real treatments at that time. 
Thanks to fundraising and research the outlook is more promising these days for those diagnosed with Leukemia. 
More recently my daughter was at school with a young man who had leukemia, the great news is that he has survived because there are now  treatments available.
Please support me with a donation to keep the research happening so that better and more effective treatments can be developed.

Why I’m doing Shave for a Cure

Saturday 1st Feb
In 2021 I decided I wanted to grow my hair to donate it for wigs. I had no idea if I could even grow it long enough, but here we are weeks away from having it cut. 
Because I didn’t know if I would be able to grow it long enough I though that I could at least raise some money by becoming part of Shave for a Cure. 
I am so pleased that I can do both.
