Shave 08 for the Leukaemia & Blood Foundation - Sponsor me?

**Livvy** · 9th April 2008, 21:53

Alright, the time is coming up now guys...

You might have seen my last thread saying I was gonna do this, but this is the official one. I'm looking for sponsors for me to shave my hair off Tuesday next week (yes, I realise it's a few days after the official shave week finishes but that's my school for you) and I'm asking here...

So here's the run down. Did you know, six people in New Zealand are diagnosed with blood cancers like Leukaemia every day? That's a hell of a lot of people guys - over two thousand people each year. So I'm saying goodbye to my shoulderlength hair with a few other girls at my school to try and get some serious fundraising done for this group, especially as since I started talking about doing this stint I've come across more and more people I know who have had family members or close friends diagnosed with this sort of stuff.

I promise after photos, and if you follow the link, you'll see my before photo... and if I can, I will get video footage as well of the event.

So, well... LINK.

My fingers are crossed for your friend too mate. My family lost a good friend to throat cancer a few years back so this is a bit of a tribute to her as well. And thanks heaps too

Good luck either way

Wow... Thank you to Erik who sponsored me $100 last night...

Oooh. And a new development.

This link will take you to the Shave For A Cure Homepage, and on it is a video clip. It's 45 seconds long, and the Leukaemia & Blood Foundation will get $1 every time this video is viewed from one of their sponsors up to the point of $10,000. This video has only been seen 2222 times when I posted up this link, so there's plenty more viewings to be done... If you can't sponsor me (or don't want to, and I'm not blaming you either way!

), it'd be really great if you lot could just watch this video for the Foundation.

Cheers!

It probably watches IP addresses... And I hope it gets credited towards me, but really, it's all going to charity in the end and that's what counts the most

P.S. it's still Livvy...
