Hi, I’m Taven! I am 5 years old and I have never had a haircut. But soon that’s all going to change for a very special reason. 

I’m cutting my hair to help people in Aotearoa New Zealand with blood cancer. This is really important to my family. I’m doing this for my cousin, Xavier who beat leukemia, and in loving memory of my Aunty Sam. 

I have 4 weeks to raise as much money as I can to support the 8 people who are diagnosed in Aotearoa New Zealand everyday with blood cancer. Your donation will help provide crucial care and power life-saving research. 

Can you help me smash my goal? No amount is too small! Mālō ‘aupito 🙏🏽
