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.

To see my journey leading up to the big day, please keep scrolling down to my blog, where I will be posting every couple of days. 

Also if you keep track of this page, you will be able to see my before and after photos:)

I'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has already donated.

Thank you to Nola & Tom Kreskas, Margret Phillips, Colleen Pringle and Niamh Farrell (My Bestie!!!!!!)

Without you, none of this could be possible.

Please tell family and friends to donate to my page so we can help raise awareness to blood cancer.

together we can do anything.

Friday 12th Sep
Hey everyone
It's me again:)
Today is the day of the greatest shave. I have decided that I will colour my hair Lilac/purple!!!!!! I would like to once again thank everyone who donated to me, making me close to reaching my goal. I am at $445 and my goal was 670. I was so close to hitting it. So thanks to Tom &Nola, Margret Phillips, Colleen Pringle, Niamh Farrell and My parents and brother. I wouldn't have been able to do this without you. I would also like to say sorry for not posting in ages (studying for those end of term tests). This will be my last post for the greatest shave 2025. Please make sure to check my page later where you could probably see my before and after photos!

Tuesday 2nd Sep
Hey everyone
It's Katia
Sorry I haven't been able to post in ages. It is only two weeks left. since it is my first time, I am so excited (and nervous as I have no idea what to do). I also see everyone else at my school starting to get excited as well. At the moment I haven't had any donations yet. So if you can, please jump online and donate to my page. Also from  now on, if you donate to this page, I will mention your name in the next post I write.

3 Week till The greatest shave

Tuesday 26th Aug
Hi everyone
It's Katia here.
This is my first time doing The Greatest Shave and this year it is my goal to keep you posted every step of the way. The reason why I have decided to do the greatest shave is (not only the awesome hair colours)  because I have heard of so many people who have been through Cancer and I want to do anything to help make a change. If you can, please donate to my page and I will post again in a couple days time.
see ya!!!
