I'm rocking the chop on 10/10/2025
I’m rocking the chop to put a stop to cancer!
Did you know that 1 in 2 Queenslanders will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime?
I’m taking part in Cancer Council’s Ponytail Project campaign to raise funds that will support Queenslanders impacted by cancer.
Whilst I am a late starter to this years 'chop', I have been dedicated to growing my hair for nearly 2 years - with the purpose always being to donate it! Every ponytail chopped will make a difference to the lives of people affected by cancer #chopforchange.
All funds raised will go towards cancer research, prevention programs and support services. This means everything from transport to get cancer patients to and from their medical appointments, to assisting childcare facilities to keep kids safe from the sun.
I know that I can help create change.
Will you support me?
You can find out more about where your donations go at ponytailproject.com.au/about-cancer-council.
Thank you!
Kind people are my kind of people!

You are sooooo inspirational and courageous Ivy!! It takes a lot of guts to chop 2 years worth of luscious locks from your head. But know it will grow back quicker than you think! Unfortunately mine wont....;) Such a great cause, you should feel very proud of yourself.
