Supercharge your fundraising!

Shavers who ask friends, family and workmates for a specific donation amount raise more. Be sure to suggest the amount you’d like people to donate when you are asking for help.

Family and friends should be the first on your list, then colleagues, local businesses and classmates.

Auction off clipper privileges to the highest bidder for the right to shave your head! Or section off your hair into a ponytail or small plaits and auction off the right to do the chop.

Do you have a unique skill? Perhaps you’re a great painter or are obsessed with making homemade jewellery. Do a live stream auction or put a post up offering a reward in exchange for a donation. You could even spark your next side hustle!

Reach out to local businesses that might want to boost business by gifting a prize or voucher to use in the future. You can raffle these off by promising a raffle entry for every $5 donated to your fundraising page. It’s a boost for you AND your business! Be sure to check your state government’s requirements for running raffles.

Declutter and have a virtual garage sale! You can list your ​‘pre-loved’ goodies on websites like Gumtree or Facebook Marketplace. Let people know in your listing that the money is going towards your World’s Greatest Shave goal and you might snag a better deal (or they might even donate to your page!)

Ask for donations to your page instead of gifts. You could also ask local businesses to donate prizes and put together a raffle! See if your workplace will match your fundraising. Even better, get the whole team involved and shave at work!

You can find your very own personalised QR poster in your fundraising dashboard. Print this out for friends and family to easily scan it and give you a quick donation!

It’s an oldie but a goodie — hold a BBQ for bake sale for a gold coin donation. Enjoy the rush of feel-good vibes on the day — it’s all about the extraordinary thing you’re doing to help conquer blood cancer!
