Help me take a stand against blood cancer

Right now, over 150,000 Australians are facing the devastating impact of blood cancer, and 17 lose their life every single day. 

That’s why I’m taking on the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave. 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.  

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

Also, I’ve been growing this hair since 1st April, it’s itchy and annoying so donate now so I can get rid of it! ;)

Your Impact

Help me earn the Place to Stay badge. That's enough to give a regional family a week of free accommodation to stay close to treatment.

I’m $220 away from my next impact milestone. Please help me reach it.

My Achievements

Help me earn the Discover badge. That’s enough to fund 3 months of laboratory costs for a research project to discover better treatments for blood cancer.

Very sad that I won't get to see the prickly beard. Is little bunny also getting shaved? ;)

It's wonderful that you're doing this Roland and to be able to support you with this important cause as I had a young nephew who sadly died from leukemia
