Raising money for blood cancer!

Doing this for Dad. 

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.

How short should I shave my hair?

Your Impact

Help me earn the Transportation badge. That's enough to provide a month of free transport for people who are too ill to drive after chemotherapy treatment.

I’m $615 away from my next impact milestone. Please help me reach it.

Well done Owen. I took a different approach when my niece was doing the shave. I sent out the message and told people that if she couldn't raise $1m then I was going shave her head. She didn't make $1m and her head was shaved, so kind of true.
