I'm fundraising for the World's Greatest Shave

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.

These numbers are set to double by 2035. Unless we do something about it. That's why I've signed up for the World's Greatest Shave.

I'm raising funds for the Leukaemia 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.

Will you be part of my World's Greatest Shave community and donate to my page?

Your donation means that together, we're working to stop blood cancer in its tracks.

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

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 $790 away from my next impact milestone. Please help me reach it.
