Help me take a stand against blood cancer
In January of 1996, my dear Mum was diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia. She was blessed with a second chance through treatment and a bone marrow transplant in May that year.
I’m shaving my head in celebration of her 30th re-Birthday… as well as in support of those I know now fighting 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 Place to Stay badge. That's enough to give a regional family a week of free accommodation to stay close to treatment.
