Help me take a stand against blood cancer
Right now, over 170,000 Australians including myself, are facing the devastating impact of blood cancer, and 17 lose their life every single day. I have multiple myeloma and would really appreciate your support.
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
