I'm rocking the chop on 10/02/2026
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.
Throughout the year, I’ll be growing my hair as long as possible, alongside peers all across Queensland, before chopping off my ponytail and rocking a brand new hairdo. 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!

Thank you to all those who donated and helped me achieve my goal of raising $1000 for cancer research. Now my golden plaits will be sent to the Ponytail Project where they will be made into a wig for someone in need.
Tomorrow is the day
Monday 9th Feb
Tomorrow I will #RocktheChop for Cancer Council's Ponytail Project.
I've had long hair for nearly 6 years and have grown it out even longer once I learned I could donate my luscious locks to the less (hair) fortunate.
Please share and, if you'd like to, donate to my cause.
Thank you to my Sponsors
