DIIREN | Locks of Happiness

By Miriam Diiren

I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.

Every year more than 35,000 Victorians hear the words ‘you have cancer’. 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us have unintentionally forgotten about those less fortunate than ourselves. This has inspired me to donate my hair, to someone who will enjoy it much more than I do. 

Someone close to me lost their head of hair due to cancer and they have also inspired me to do this — to that person, you are incredibly strong, wise and I love you! 

Please also support my husband, Shaneal, who will be doing 100 push-ups for 2 months to raise funds for Cancer Research. 

-------

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 walk, you’re funding life-saving cancer treatments, prevention programs, and support services that ensure no one has to face cancer alone.
