Your impact
Ready for the most important hairdo of your life?
Shave for a Cure is a powerful way to stand in solidarity with the 8 Kiwis who are diagnosed with blood cancer every day.
Every shave, cut or colour is a reminder that we’re in this together. And every dollar you raise will help make sure no one has to face blood cancer alone.
By shaving, cutting, or colouring your hair, you’ll help raise funds to support people like Tommy and his family, while helping fund vital research for a cure.
When my son Tommy fell ill on his second birthday, I never could have imagined that days later, he’d be diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL).
Months of gruelling chemotherapy left his immune system so weak that we had to avoid other kids—even driving past playgrounds until we found an empty one. Then he developed a serious fungal infection in his lungs, and we didn’t know if he would survive.
Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand was a lifesaver, helping us with everything from emotional support to food and petrol when times were tough. Now, Tommy is well, he’s started kindy, and he’ll finish his treatment this year.
– Helena, Tommy’s Mum
