Shaving my hair to raise money

Hello all,

I will be participating in the World's Greatest Shave on the 25th of October - MDS day to raise money to help fight blood cancer and support victims.

MDS stands for Myleodysplastic Syndromes, a type of blood cancer. In recent months, it has become significant to our family as my lovely Grandpa has been diagnosed with it. It has inspired me to take the challenge and shave my hair, which I've been growing for just under 3 years

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page. I am truly humbled by all the support.

Thanks again,

Nick

Wednesday 15th Oct
It has been 2 days, and already we have almost doubled the goal!
Thank you all so much, from the bottom of my heart. When I first started, I thought the $400 goal was optimistic, so to see it meet that and exceed it at all, let alone almost double is a great sight to see!
The fight isn't over, but this is a great start!
Thank you all again so much,
Nick
