I’m taking on the #WorldsGreatestShave—this one’s for you, Josh
This year, it’s personal. I’ve set a goal to raise $5,000 in honor of my cousin, my best man, and one of the greatest people I’ve ever known—Josh. We recently lost him to leukemia, and the hole he’s left behind is impossible to fill.
Josh faced his sickness and, ultimately, his death with a strength that was nothing short of inspiring. He never backed down, never lost his humor, and never stopped putting others first. If I can carry even a fraction of his courage, his kindness, and his fight, then I know I’m honoring him the way he deserves.
That’s why I’m proud to be part of Parra Leagues’ group fundraiser, standing alongside an incredible community to raise funds for life-saving research and support for families facing blood cancer. This is about making sure no one fights alone—and carrying on Josh’s legacy to keep up the fight.
If you can, please support us with a donation. Every dollar brings us closer to a world where no one has to lose someone they love to this terrible disease.
Let’s do this together. 💙💛
Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.
Thanks for having your say
