Amy Needs Our Support

Amy Lever a Fitness Instructor at Dolphins Health Precinct needs our support. 

On Saturday 15th of March Amy is asking us all to dig in our pockets and give to the Leukaemia Foundation.

While others maybe looking at the latest styles and colours for their hair, Amy is preparing to shave hers off in the hope of curing cancer. 

Amy a Fitness Instructor at Dolphins Health Precinct announced to her family and work mates

"I'm taking part in the Leukaemia Foundation's World's Greatest Shave to support a family member in his brave journey with cancer," she said. 

When asked about her participation for the upcoming Shave for a Cure, Amy responded with an answer that should make us all think. 

"Everyone has been effected some way by cancer, not everyone has the same type and although it may differ from leukaemia (the Leukaemia Foundation is running the World's Greatest Shave), but the money raised through shaving my head will help fund cancer research and support those with blood cancer.  

"Every day 31 people in Australia will get the news that they have blood cancer.” 

"My donations raised will help the Leukaemia Foundation support these people from the moment they are diagnosed - whether it's by building a home-away-from-home, or even transport to and from treatment." 

Amy will be shaving her head at 2pm on Saturday 15th March at Mon Komo Hotel World’s Greatest Shave event, in the hopes of raising funds. 

You can help her reach her goal by sponsoring Amy's shave and making a donation at:
