I'm rocking the chop on 29/08/2025

I’m #ROCKINGTHECHOP to give strength, confidence and stand in solidarity with those battling cancer!

Did you know an average of 141 people are diagnosed with cancer every day in NSW?

I’m taking part in Cancer Council’s Ponytail Project campaign to raise funds that will support Australians impacted by cancer.

Throughout the next term, I’ll be growing my hair as long as possible, alongside peers within the Vinnies community, before chopping off my ponytail and rocking a brand new hairdo. Every ponytail has the power to 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 :)
