I'm now a Zero Hero
As Miss Samoa Victoria 2019, I want to utilise my platform to share an important aspect of my life. At the young age of 4, I was unfortunate enough to lose my mum to breast cancer. My nana lost a daughter, my aunties lost a sister and so forth. This month would have been her 47th birthday and to celebrate, I want to do something special to commemorate her life. So I‘ve decided to shave my hair because I want a world where no child has to endure life, without their Mother. 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!!!

You’re such a great role model for our youth, pray that you continue to be an inspirational for the generation of tommrow. Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give but cannot. All of that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.” —Jamie Anderson Love & Prayers from us, God bless you abundantly❤❤?

They say that a girls hair is her crown. Giving up your crown to honour your mum speaks volumes about the woman you’ve become. You’re moulded in His image but, that heart is something you’ve received from the nurturing love of those in your life - in particular Nanaboss. You’re such a great role model for our youth. Praying Gods abundance and blessings in your life. Love Sade, Sikivi and Gina Tafea
