Help me take a stand against blood cancer
Kia ora Folks,
Over the years I've lost count of the times I've overheard "strange guy but hey, what about the hair!" ...or words to that effect.
So this is big news.
I know many of you will be heartbroken to hear my amazing hair will no longer be here, but desperate times call for desperate measures, and that’s why I’m taking on the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave.
Did you know that right now, over 150,000 Australians are facing the devastating impact of blood cancer, and 17 lose their life every single day.
By donating to my page, you’ll help me raise funds and awareness for blood cancer, and fuel life-changing research projects and support services for patients and their families.
I've always told people that I have the World's most generous family/friends/colleagues/sworn enemies (delete as required) and this is a chance to prove me right. Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.
Thanks in advance for your generosity.
Cheers, Kapai, Nga Mihi,
Richard/Rich/RJ/S****y

Whilst the image on your fundraiser makes it look like there’s more hair to shave, it is still for a good cause. Lots of love Xx
