The Great Hair-Off

By Ari Dickson

I'm fundraising for...

My name is Ari and I’m in grade 6. Lung Cancer affected my family when we lost my Oma. I was 10 months old and all I have are photos for memories. 

2.5 years ago I started growing my hair and decided to chop it off to help raise money for Lung Cancer research.

Now it is time.  I’ve set a date of  Saturday 31st May but I need your help to reach my goal of $1000.

Together, we can help shine a light on lung cancer and fund groundbreaking research. Every year, the Shine a Light campaign raises funds to brighten the future for Australians living with lung cancer.

Where there is light, there is hope. Please support me and donate today. You will make a difference.
