I'm fundraising for the World's Greatest Shave

Most people who know me personally have heard about my cousin Sienna. If you don't know she was born with an heart impediment, and after recent events, has recently signed the do not resuscitate papers. Unfortunately my family and I have come to terms that she has not got long at all left. So for a final goodbye to her I've decided to shave my head for people less fortunate like my dear cousin. They may not have been born with the same thing but they've all had to suffer through the same processes, and many more will. After all hair does grow back and is replaceable, human lives however can't. Blood cancer is Australia's hidden cancer crisis. There are 140,000 families facing blood cancer right now. And it takes the lives of 16 Australians every day. I'm raising funds for the Leukemia Foundation to give Australians facing blood cancer life-changing practical and emotional support. And to fund critical research, bringing us closer to the day when zero lives are lost to blood cancer. Donating any amount big or small will make a real, tangible difference towards someone's life.
