I’m Shaving for a Cure – And I Need Your Help

On 31 March 2026, I’ll be doing something that’s been a long time coming. For those that don't know, for the last 3 years, I’ve been growing my hair for a good cause.

I’m aiming to raise at least $5000 but more would be amazing.  The big shave is the 31st March 2026. Every donation—big or small—directly helps Australians facing blood cancer by funding research, providing support services, and bringing us one step closer to a cure. And my once luscious locks will be donated to the Wigs for Kids foundation.

Your generosity genuinely makes a difference If you can, please donate. If you can’t, sharing the link or spreading the word would still mean the world to me.

I’m ready to lose this Curly mop that I’ve spent years growing. Not only is the hair that is shaved off is going to raise vital funds for research but the most important part of this process for me is donating to Wig's for Kids to help children battling leukemia have some good-looking curls.
