A Shave for the Brave!

By Gypsy Luck

Shaving the Day!

Meet Katrina, Stewart, and Nicole—three incredible, big-hearted humans who’ve spent their entire lives helping others. And now, they’re putting their heads on the line. Literally.

As part of our Pink Ribbon Morning Tea on May 22nd, these brave legends are taking part in a SHAVATHON—yes, they’re shaving it all off to help beat breast cancer. But we’re not just grabbing the clippers and going for it—we’re giving you the chance to leave your mark.

On the day we will be auctioning off the “first snip” of each team member. Want to be the one to chop the first lock? Get your bids in! After the ceremonial first cut, a professional hairdresser will be on hand to finish the job (because we love them too much to leave them patchy).

Why We're Doing This:

Every year in Aotearoa, 3,500 Kiwis are diagnosed with breast cancer, and more than 650 lives are lost to it. That’s 650 too many.

By supporting the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ, we’re helping fund:

Ground-breaking research led by some of our country’s top scientists Education on breast health, regular screening, and the signs to watch for Free support services for patients and their families when they need it most. We want to help make the goal of zero deaths from breast cancer a reality—and we need you on our team.

The Bald Truth …

It takes guts and balls to do what our three legends are doing, so the very least you can do is support.

We are asking for early donations to give them the encouragement they so deserve.

 Donate like someone’s life depends on it—because it just might!!
