I'm fundraising for the World's Greatest Shave

I’m reaching out to you with a heartfelt mission—I’m raising funds for the Leukaemia Foundation, a truly remarkable organization that provides essential support and care for those affected by blood cancer. They are also at the forefront of funding innovative research to ensure that no one has to endure the pain of losing their life to this disease.


This Saturday at noon, I’ll be shaving my head at the Wavecrest Bar and Bistro to support this vital cause. It's going to be a meaningful day, and I invite you to join me. There will be a raffle to further aid our efforts, with the draw happening right after my head is shaved—certainly a moment I won't forget!


Additionally, we have a special initiative called 'Prune a Plait,' where for just $10, you can participate in the fun and cut off one of my plaits. It’s a lighthearted way to contribute to a serious cause, and I would be honored to have you involve yourself in this gesture.


I am deeply passionate about this mission, and your support would mean the world to me. Together, we can make a significant impact on the fight against blood cancer. Thank you so much for being such a wonderful part of this community. Let’s stand together to stop blood cancer in its tracks! 💖
