The students, supported by their teachers and staff, took part in a Shave for a Cure event and raised an impressive amount of money for the Leukemia Foundation.

The "Shoaly Shaves" raised $1608.60 which was an amazing effort.

So a huge congratulations go to all the brave students and statistics show why their efforts are so important.

Blood cancer and related disorders can develop in anyone, of any age, at any time.

Every day another 35 Australians are diagnosed with a blood cancer. That's one Aussie every 41 minutes.

Right now, more than 60,000 Australians are living with blood cancer or related disorders.

Although research is improving survival, blood cancer claims more lives than breast cancer and melanoma and sadly an Australian loses their life to blood cancer every two hours.

In many cases, treatment starts within 24 hours of diagnosis. If the person lives in rural or regional areas, the impact is even greater. They may need to relocate for months or years of treatment - leaving everyone and everything behind.

The Leukaemia Foundation is the only national charity dedicated to helping more Australians with leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma and related disorders survive their blood cancer and live a better quality of life.

By being a caped crusader and raising money through the World's Greatest Shave, you can make a difference by giving families facing blood cancer the emotional and practical support they need.

You will also fund vital research to help more people survive blood cancers like lymphoma, leukaemia and myeloma, while improving their quality of life.
