World's Greatest Shave!


I've done it before to raise money for the Make A Wish Foundation, and now I'm going to do it all again for a different cause.
We (my husband Mark and I, a.k.a. The Shaved Frogs) are taking part in the Leukaemia Foundation’s World's Greatest Shave this year! 
We will both be shaving our heads.
Take a look at our Profile Page by clicking this link:

Please sponsor us by making an online donation using a credit card. We're aiming to raise as much as we can for the Leukaemia Foundation. Their vital work provides patients with practical support during their long and tough treatment, as well as funding important research. 
Did you know? 
- Every hour of every day, at least one person in Australia is diagnosed with leukaemia, lymphoma or myeloma. 
- Every two hours, someone loses their life to blood cancer. 
- $26 can provide emotional support to help someone overcome the shock of being diagnosed  
- $40 can help improve treatments and find cures by funding a PhD student's laboratory costs for a day  
- $57 can support patients who are too ill to drive by providing a day's transport to and from treatment  
- $80 can give a regional family who've had to move closer to treatment, a place to call home for a night

Thank you for your support!
