Support My Mission: $5,000 for Cancer Research

Dear friend,
I’m reaching out to ask for a small gesture of support for a very important cause. I’ve officially launched a fundraising campaign in collaboration with Cancer Council Victoria to support cancer research.
My goal is to raise $5,000 to fund one full year of lab-based cancer research. I will also be donating my hair to be made into a medical wig for someone experiencing hair loss due to cancer treatment.
Every contribution, no matter how small, adds value to this cause — and together, we can make a difference.
Sadly, many of us have known loved ones affected by cancer, and it breaks our hearts to see them suffer or lose the fight. We can only hope that in the future, cancer will become a treatable condition for all.
That’s why supporting research matters — and why even a small donation can be part of something powerful.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.
Beat Da Bug: Shave for Cancer
When: 28/11/2025, 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM
Where: To be announced
I'm shaving my head to fight the cancer ‘bug’ — join me in raising funds for life-saving research with Cancer Council Victoria!
Your support will help fund vital cancer research and purchase materials for a lab-based cancer project for one full year. Every donation counts — and brings us closer to a cancer-free future.
On the night, I’ll be donating my hair to be made into wigs for people experiencing hair loss due to illness.
Let’s get together, raise funds, and beat the bug — together.
Every dollar helps support patients, fund research, and bring us closer to a cancer-free future. Let’s beat the bug together—one shave at a time.
Every year more than 35,000 Victorians hear the words ‘you have cancer’.
Thanks in part to generous Victorians, 7 in 10 of them will survive five years after a cancer diagnosis, but there’s still so much work to be done.
Cancer Council needs our support more than ever this year. Every dollar raised gives hope for a cancer free future. By supporting my event, you’re funding life-saving cancer treatments, prevention programs, and support services that ensure no one has to face cancer alone.
