Help me take a stand against blood cancer
This year I’m cutting off 20cm of my hair for the World’s Greatest Shave.
I may not know someone personally affected by blood cancer, but I know that over 150,000 Australians are living with it — and 17 people lose their lives to it every single day. That’s why I’ve decided to do something bold to raise awareness and funds.
Hair grows back — but the impact we can make right now by supporting patients, families, and research can last a lifetime.
Every donation, big or small, brings us one step closer to a future free of blood cancer.
Thank you for helping me make a difference.
Thanks for having your say
