I’m helping to beat blood cancer by taking part in the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave!
🌟 Join the Fight Against Blood Cancer and shave for a Cure! 🌟
For those who don't know me, my Name is Sienna. I'm a Clinical Nurse Specialist in Intensive Care at the Alfred and have been since 2021. As a nurse in a variety of specialities and health services since 2017, I've witnessed the overwhelming strength and resilience of individuals and their loved ones as they battle blood cancer in various stages, each as unforgettable as the last. Now, I'm taking a bold step to make a small difference. I'm shaving my hair off for the World's Greatest Shave, raising funds for crucial research.
🔬 Why Shave?
Blood cancer affects countless lives, and together, we can be a force for change. By shaving my head, I'm symbolizing solidarity and commitment to finding a cure. Every day, 53 Aussies are diagnosed with blood cancer, and 16 will lose their life.
🤝 How Can You Help?
* Donate: Every contribution, big or small, fuels research and brings us closer to a cure. I am aiming high and hoping to fundraise $20,000 hospital wide between now and January 10th 2024
* Spread the Word: Share this message, let others know about the cause, and encourage them to donate, shave or colour to join the fight.
💇♂️ The Big Shave Event: 12pm Wednesday the 10th of January 2024
Save the date! Join us virtually or in person to witness the transformative moment. Together, we'll celebrate unity and hope. It will be just opposite the hospital in Fawkner Park. I am hoping to make it a beautiful celebration for all that want to get involved with food trucks, music and local businesses.
(If you know a food truck company or a local business who you think would want to get involved, please email me)
🌈 Together, We Can Make a Difference!
Let's turn compassion into action. Join me in supporting the World's Greatest Shave, and let's bring hope to those fighting blood cancer.
