Help me take a stand against blood cancer
What started as a light-hearted conversation amongst teammates has quickly grown into an impromptu head shave in support of the Leukaemia Foundation.
While it may have come together at short notice, every donation will help raise vital funds and awareness for blood cancer, supporting life-changing research as well as services for patients and their families.
Right now, more than 170,000 Australians are living with blood cancer, and tragically, 17 people lose their lives to it every day.
We’ll be capturing the moment on video – whether it’s one person or ten who take part – and sharing it with the team. Every shave, every dollar, and every show of support will make a difference.
Thanks for having your say
