Shaving head for breast cancer research

By Maddison Hawley-Tatten

I'm now a Zero Hero

I've decided to shave/cut/colour my hair because I want a world where there are ZERO deaths from breast cancer. I believe every death from breast cancer is one too many. To achieve this, I’m raising funds for more research. All donations made to this page will help do exactly that. 

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.

I really believe 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. Together we can help them get there.

Click 'Donate' to make a secure online donation and help me reach my goal. Every donation, big or small, will help me get there. Please donate today.

All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will be issued with a tax-deductible receipt via email as soon as you make your donation.

Thank you so much for your support!

My mum will not have to do this alone

Friday 14th Oct
My mum has metastatic stage 4 breast cancer. She has undergone 2 major surgeries (spine and a shoulder replacement) to remove tumours and stabilise her bones. 

The medication she is now on is causing her hair to fall out. I will be shaving my head on 25 November so that she doesn’t have to go through losing her hair alone. The money I raise will go towards breast cancer research.

Thank you to my Supporters
