I'm now a Zero Hero
I have decided to shave my head and donate my ponytails this year on the 2nd of March in a university-run event. This is in recognition of both my grandmothers who were diagnosed with breast cancer in the past few years. They fought diligently against it due to early detection and effective treatment. I love them both dearly and would have been devastated to lose them. I hope that by raising money, I can contribute to the development of breast cancer detection methods and treatments so that more people can have a safe recovery from breast cancer and live long and happy lives with their loved ones. All donations made to this page will help to do exactly that.
Please consider donating some money towards my goal. All donations over $2 are tax-deductible. Thank you so much for your support!
"The National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) is Australia's leading national body funding game-changing breast cancer research with money raised entirely by the Australian public.
It is believed that research is the best way to prevent deaths, and improve how breast cancer is diagnosed, managed and treated. NBCF is working towards one goal: zero deaths from breast cancer by 2030."
