Shaving My Head To Save Chemo From Doing It To Others
My name is Lance Allan and the purpose of me shaving my head is to raise funds to help find a cure for cancer and prevent and support others from suffering the indignity of losing their hair due to chemotherapy.
I've seen first-hand the effects of cancer treatment and the pain that it brings upon families, as my grandma is currently in remission from battling Hodgkins Lymphoma, commonly known as leukaemia, which disabled her immune system from fighting this terrible disease. From 2018-2021 she had been fighting the terrible battle between cancer and courageously pulled through and is now in remission.
7 years ago, my brother and a couple of his schoolmates initiated this routine tradition of shaving their heads to uphold the human dignity of others.
My goal is to inspire my fellow peers to donate their hair to this greater cause and bring awareness to the ongoing struggle people have with cancer and the effects it has on their appearance and well-being.
My other goal apart from raising funds to fight this insidious disease, is to demonstrate to the people who have the battle that WE CARE!
At the end of the day, I'm only losing some hair so that my small sacrifice will raise money to support the families and individuals who have been affected by the terrible touch of cancer. The spectacle of losing all their hair in minutes is my dramatic way of raising funds for this worthwhile cause.
Any small donation to support the cause means you are making an impact not just for individual families suffering now but to prevent future families from going through this pain.
Thank you to my Sponsors
