I’m helping to beat blood cancer by taking part in the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave!

Blood cancer is Australia's hidden cancer crisis. There are 140,000 families facing blood cancer right now. And it takes the lives of 16 Australians every day.  These numbers are set to double by 2035. Unless we do something about it. That's why I've signed up for the World's Greatest Shave.  Shaving my beard off on February 8th, 2024 is a small sacrifice and an easy way to encourage others to contribute to such a worthy cause. While we are living in difficult economic times, every contribution however large or small is needed and appreciated. I'm raising funds for the Leukaemia Foundation to give Australians facing blood cancer life-changing practical and emotional support. And to fund critical research, bringing us closer to the day when zero lives are lost to blood cancer.  Will you be part of my World's Greatest Shave community and donate to my page?  Your donation, large or small, means that together, we're working toward stopping blood cancer in its tracks.  Thanks for your support. Bill (still bearded)

Thanks, Lynette. I'm still recovering from that race but the beard removal has left me weakened. Still happy though.{"data":{"replyId":"2146251"}}

Thankyou, Jane and Joe. It is a worthy cause and a horrible disease so taking my beard off is no sacrifice really if it helps. Bill{"data":{"replyId":"2141617"}}
