A Little Colour.
A Bigger Impact.
I’m changing my hair for a cause. On 31 October, I’ll be getting lavender/purple highlights and turning a personal change into an opportunity to raise money and awareness for Cancer Council Victoria.
The colour change is getting closer.
Countdown to 2:15 PM on 31 October 2026, using Melbourne, Australia time.
A small personal change can create something bigger.
Changing my hair might seem like a small thing, but I wanted to turn that personal decision into something meaningful.
Rather than simply changing my appearance, I’m using the opportunity to encourage people around me to think about cancer, support an important organisation and contribute towards a cause that affects so many people.
The idea behind A Little Colour, A Bigger Impact is simple: a little colour in my hair can hopefully create a much bigger impact beyond myself.
I’m putting a little purple into the world.
On the day of the fundraiser, I’ll be getting lavender/purple highlights in my hair.
It’s a visible change, a little outside my normal look, and hopefully a fun way to get people talking about the fundraiser.
The goal is not simply the hair transformation. The real goal is what that transformation can help create.
Mark the date.
The fundraiser is officially scheduled. Here’s everything you need to know about the hair transformation.
Let’s turn $1,000 into a bigger impact.
My goal is to raise $1,000 AUD for Cancer Council. Every donation contributes towards the overall goal, and I want to make this fundraiser something that people can genuinely get behind.
For the first three donations made to the fundraiser, I’ll personally match each donation up to $25. That’s up to an additional $75 from me.
I’m putting my own money behind the challenge too.
$200 personal pledge
The estimated cost of getting my hair coloured is $200. I’m matching that cost with a $200 personal pledge to the fundraiser.
Plus the first 3 donations
I’ll also match the first three donations, up to $25 per donation. That means I could contribute another $75 on top of my $200 pledge.
Because the impact goes far beyond the fundraiser.
