Hair Today, Hope Tomorrow

By Perin Davey

Seven years ago I cut I cut and donated my hair for cancer research.  Since then I lost my father to cancer and recently two of my school friends passed from cancer within weeks of each other.  But it's not always bad news.   Two of my cousins were diagnosed with different cancers before their 16th birthday and thanks to their dedicated care teams and new and emerging treatment options they are both now cancer free.  That is why I’m going to do it again by taking the ACRF Hair Dare to support Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) in their mission to achieve a world without 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.

Thank you for your generous donation. Supporting ACRF means giving Australia’s best cancer research to the people who need it most. That could be someone you know – someone you care about – your family, your friends, your community, perhaps even you.

My Updates

It is done!

Friday 21st Aug
With many thanks to all my donors - I reached my fundraising target of $2000 just as the first plaits were getting cut off today. The hair will be winging its way to Wigs4Kids, the money will be going into cancer research and I will be rocking my new short style.
Thank you all xxx

9 days to go!

Wednesday 12th Aug
The appointment is confirmed for August 21 and I am committed to seeing this through! Help me help others by donating. Thanks

Hair goes before the end of August!

Tuesday 28th Jul
Thank you to those who have jumped on board early and made a donation.  And thank you to those who have helpfully pointed out I haven't got a timeline.

So my promise to you is that I will chop my locks before the end of August....  just haven't spoken to my hairdresser yet (who I clearly haven't seen for quite some time, so I hope they remember my name).

I will keep this page open until August 31 August.

Cheers
:-)
