Raising awareness for the Leukaemia Foundation

I’ve taken a stand against blood cancer.

We were given the opportunity to create a community based activity for our University. We chose to raise awareness for the Leukaemia Foundation as some of us have a personal connection to the charity and we are all more than happy to share the incredible work this organisation does.

Today, more than 50 Australians will be told that they have blood cancer and tomorrow - another 50 families will be devastated by the same news.

We have created this page to raise vital funds to help provide the special care that is needed to get families through a blood cancer diagnosis as well as to help fund more game-changing research into this disease. 

The money we raise will help provide care for those in need right now — and it will back the brightest researchers to continue uncovering faster diagnoses and better treatments to save lives. 

Please show us your support by donating to my fundraising campaign.
