Here's why you should support my shave 🧡
My Shave for a Cure đź’›
This will be my first time shaving my head. As a woman, my hair has always been closely tied to my sense of self, so deciding to let it go hasn’t been easy.
I’m doing this because cancer touches more lives than we often realise. I know people who have been through treatment, people who are still going through it, and people who support their loved ones quietly in the background. For many of them, hair loss isn’t a choice—it’s just one more difficult part of an already overwhelming journey.
Taking part in Shave for a Cure is my way of standing alongside those affected, and of turning something that scares me into something meaningful.
If you’re able to donate, you’ll be helping fund research and provide practical care and emotional support for people living with blood cancer in New Zealand. Every day, 8 people here are diagnosed with a blood cancer.
Your donation can help:
$28 provide information for families
$55 help patients get to treatment
$112 support access to support groups
$200 fund blood cancer research
$500 help keep young patients connected to their classmates through Monkey in My Chair
Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a real difference.
Thank you for being here, for reading, and for supporting this cause—and me—as I take this step 💛
