About the Leukaemia Foundation
You'll be helping a really important cause when you take part in World's Greatest Shave.
The Leukaemia Foundation is the only national not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the care and cure of patients and families living with leukaemias, lymphomas, myeloma and related blood disorders.
Your efforts will help us provide a free 'home away from home' in our 16 accommodation centres located close to treatment facilities across Australia.
With your help we can offer support services including accomodation, transport, educational programs and practical assistance to patients and families free of charge.
The money you raise also funds cutting edge research into better treatments and cures through our National Research Program helping to improve survival rates for adults and children.
Where the money goes
$55 pays for one car to transport patients to and from treatment centres for one day.
$100 provides a family with a fully furnished 'home away from home' near a treatment centre for one night.
$250 provides a family with a tailored counselling and support program for three months.
