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.

Thanks for having your say

Hair grows back, but hope saves lives!

Tuesday 26th Aug
We’re Losing Our Hair… But Not Our Sense of Humour!
At the bold request (read: relentless persuasion) of our students, a few courageous teachers - including yours truly - have agreed to shave it all off for a good cause!
That's right: we're trading whiteboard markers for hair clippers (with the assistance of the amazing Emily) to support Shave for a Cure, raising vital funds for blood cancer research. Whether you're donating out of admiration or just want to see us bald and bewildered - every dollar helps!
So go ahead - sponsor our sacrifice, support the science, and help us prove that beauty is only skin scalp-deep.
We’re aiming for $10,000 🤞
Donate today - because hair grows back, but hope saves lives.
