Help me take a stand against blood cancer

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.  

Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.

How short should I shave my hair?

Your Impact

Help me earn the Discovery badge. That's enough to fund 3 months of laboratory costs for a research project to discover better treatments for blood cancer.

I’m $1,700 away from my next impact milestone. Please help me reach it.

I am absolutely blown away and so grateful for the number of donations and total amount. Thank you all so much. I am also getting a bit terrified! But it’s only hair. It will grow back!
