Brave Shave 2024

I’m taking on ACRF’s Brave Shave this World Cancer Research Day to raise vital funds for research into all cancers.

2 in 5 Australians will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.

The remaining 3 will be closely affected by a diagnosis. 

It's a deadly problem that needs disruptive solutions, starting with pioneering programs and revolutionary research. Because we know only brilliant ideas can tackle something as big as cancer. 

I am raising vital funds to support the 2 in 5 Australians will be diagnosed with cancer before the age of 85. With your help, we can transform the way we prevent, diagnose and treat ALL types of cancer and put an end to this devastating disease.

What & Why…

My name is Henry, and I lost my father to Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma 25yrs ago. I’m using what’s left of my hair, to raise money for ACRF, and also to donate my hair to The Children with Cancer foundation, so it can be made into a wig. 
Unfortunately my best friend lost his father this year, and I lost a friend on Thursday to Bowel cancer. So I’d like to honour them, by committing a small act to try and raise awareness and much needed funds, to hopefully help eradicate this awful disease. 
EVERY DONATION, WHETHER LARGE OR SMALL CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. 
Thank you
