World's Greatest Shave
Tranzworks proudly participated in the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave on March 2011, by team members and Suppliers shaving, and colouring along with 125,000 Australians who will also take part.
It’s one of Australia’s biggest fundraising events and raises much needed funds for those in need…
so…
Why did we take part in the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave?
Here are some simple facts:
- Almost 10,000 Australians will be diagnosed with blood cancers and related blood disorders this year.
- Although survival rates are improving, blood cancer is our second biggest cause of cancer death.
- The Leukaemia Foundation receives no ongoing government funding, so supporting this event makes their Vision to Cure and Mission to Care possible.
- The money we raise will go towards research, which is needed to find better treatments and cures for blood cancers.
- The donations and sponsorship will also support patients and their families when they need it most, providing them with a free home-away-from-home near hospital during their treatment. It will also mean that the Leukaemia Foundation can transport them to appointments and provide practical assistance and emotional support, all free of charge.
Our Teams target was $1000.00. Due to the fantastic effort of our team, at present we have raised $2030.00, and there is still pledges to come in.
Attached are the photographs of our team members who took part in the actual shave and colouring, but it was the entire Tranzworks team and suppliers, who made this a fantastic day.
