Help me take a stand against blood cancer
Hi everyone it's me again :D !
Thank you sooo much for the support last year - we smashed our 245$ goal!! This year's shave is personal to me - many of my family members currently live with blood disease and this time I'm getting shaved by my nice friend Yoanna to spread awareness for blood cancer (because I currently don't have any hair to donate due to last year's cut...)
Last year, we raised more than $400 - that's splendid money going into research, blood cancer projects and various support services for cancer patients and their families, whether it be a place to stay during treatment, emotional counselling or financial assistance. Let's do it again!!
Please consider donating to my page - whether it be two dollars or three or six or seven - and let's make Australia blood cancer-free by 2035!! If you don't want to donate or lack the necessary means to, come see me go bald in week 11 :)
- Melissa
