Mate I have just finished registering and successfully joined your team. I will be getting a colour as I did the shave thing a few years back and it wasn't a good look then, and it certainly hasn't improved with time.

Steve, if you could just give me an idea on the following.

1. As I collect money do I log in to your site or the leukemia site to register the amount.

2. Do I keep the money and give to you on the day in March or progressively bank in your (or other) account.

3. Receipts? If somebody wants a receipt, what's the go with that.

Cheers mate. Glad to be of some help and hopefully we can raise some dough for a very very worthwhile cause.

Cheers, Pete

Hi

Thanks for joining

They will send you out your info pack in the mail. It will have receipt books, etc.

It is best to get people to sponsor you online. That way you don't have to worry about cash, receipts, etc. They just use their credit card online.

i would love to join the team guys but last time me and my mates organised a group to do it our school threatened us with expulsion from the college if we shaved our heads, they were just worried about the image of the school instead of people with leukemia

Guys, this is a very good cause, I have had my head shaved the last 4 years after my best mate lost his dad to Leukaemia. It really hits home when you see not only how it impacts the person suffering from the terrible disease but also how it impacts their family and friends. Alan was like a second father to me and after seeing what he and his family went through, I was determined to be able to help to try to make sure that people will not have to go through this alone.

Until this happens to someone close, it is only natural to feel a little detached from the situation and not worry about making a donation.

Last year, I was able to raise $2740, it is not a huge amount but every bit helps.

Dig deep guys and support this great cause.

Cheers

Hi

If you want to do it online you will need a credit card.

You can sponsor someone in person and they can give you a receipt.

Hi

Shave date is 12, 13 or 14 of March. We don't have to do it all together as there may be people all over the place. You can get it done wherever you like. We will aim for the 13th and the possibility of a group shave, but join in no matter where you are.

There are also event locations organised by the foundation, check out the website for details. http://worldsgreatestshave.com.au/

Hi Guys,

Congratulations to all of you who are taking part in the "Shave" and to Steve for organising the group.

I did the shave in 2006. It is a long story but I promised a cop in a pub in Tassie about 15 years ago that if I ever cut my hair I would do it for the Luekaemia Foundation. Well it took 15 years to get up the courage and it was the most liberating thing I have ever done in my life.
One of our customers grandson's was going through treatment at the time and each week I would hear stories about his progress and the brilliant assistance the Foundation was giving his family. The money is not just about research but also about providing accomodation for families who have to move for treatment and lots of other services. I decided it was time. The day after I signed up I got news that a friend had passed away. She had a baby the same age as my little one.

There are heaps of ways to raise money and you will find that no one will begrudge you asking them. I was lucky enough to raise a reasonable amount of money, with my customers and past business associates being unbelievably supportive.

Good luck to all of you and think outside the square with ideas for how to get the money.
