Thousands of brave Australians signed up to shave or colour their hair to help lessen the impact of blood cancer.
As the Leukaemia Foundation receives no ongoing government funding, funds raised by the World’s Greatest Shave will help meet the increasing demand for our support services which sees one Australian diagnosed with a blood cancer or a related blood disorder every 46 minutes.
Each year, the Foundation supports thousands of people and their families by providing services at no cost. These services include: information, emotional support, transport and accommodation for regional families required to relocate closer to metropolitan treatment centres. We also invest millions of dollars each year into vital research to improve treatments and find cures for blood cancer.
In New South Wales we hope to raise over $6.1 million. Thanks to all of our supporters, we are on our way to reaching our goal. There is still time for people to sign up or make a donation by visiting www.worldsgreatestshave.com
On behalf of all those diagnosed and their families in New South Wales who will be supported as a direct result of the World’s Greatest Shave, thank you.
