Help me take a stand against blood cancer
It has been 10 years since I last cut my hair and over the years many people have wanted it lopped off!
Well, now's your chance!
As this is a big decision for me, I'm setting some donation goals:
At $1000 total donations, I will be having a decent hair cut (shoulder length)
At $2500 total donations, I will get my hair cut short
At $5000 total donations, I will shave my head
So, put your money where your mouth is, and support this fine cause.
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 Discovery badge. That's enough to fund 3 months of laboratory costs for a research project to discover better treatments for blood cancer.
