Help me take a stand against blood cancer
Over the past year I have worked in a cancer research unit. I have seen people go into remission and have lost countless others to the progression of their condition. To be graced with such amazing and beautiful souls daily who have made a great impact on my life is an honour.
I'd like to honour those in my family who have battled cancer, the people I work with daily battling cancer and anyone who has beat, is actively fighting or has been taken too soon by disease. Right now, over 170,000 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. Spread the word and spread awareness <3>
Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference!
- Love, Matek.
