Have new hairstyles

Every day, 8 Kiwis are diagnosed with blood 
cancers like leukaemia, lymphoma, or myeloma. They can hit anyone, at any age, out of the blue.


By shaving, cutting, or colouring your hair, you’ll join a movement of thousands united to make sure no one ever has to face blood cancer alone.


Your fundraiser will help power life-saving research and deliver crucial care and support for people with blood cancer in New Zealand.

Change lives

Shave, snip or colour your hair and raise funds to help power a cure.

Help find a cure, your way

Do it for someone you love. Do it for someone you’ve lost. Do it for the 8 people – young and old – diagnosed with blood cancer every single day in New Zealand.

Shave it

Stand in solidarity with cancer patients who often lose their hair during treatment.  Shave at school, work, or in the comfort of your own home.

Cut it

Not ready to go all off?  Cutting your hair can still make a big difference and untreated hair can also be donated to be made into wigs.  Cut at your local salon, school, work, or in the comfort of your own home.

Colour it

Add some colour and make a difference in the lives of people living with blood cancer.  Choose your colour and check out our top tips for colouring in our resources.  Colour at home or your local salon.

Helena shaved her hair for her sister.

Nearly a year ago, I got a phone call that no one wants to receive. It was my younger sister bravely telling me that just moments beforehand, her doctors had diagnosed her with Leukaemia…
It’s been a long and hard road for her. 11 months on, and she’s successfully kicking Leukaemia’s arse, thanks to a trial drug. I want to help find more effective treatments (like the one my sister is on) to save lives and make sure people with cancer get the support they need to get through.
