EVENT DATE: 18/08/2011

"People will forget what you said, they will forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel" (Maya Angelou)

Many of you will know that our good friend and colleague Julie is currently fighting a battle with breast cancer. While we can't even begin to imagine what she's going through, we want to do something to make her feel she's not alone on this journey.

So today (18/8), eight brave boys from the insurance team (Joe Benbow, Andy Williamson, Jono Radka, Tim Penny, Dan Arbidans, Andrew Bolland, David Carlyon and Shaun Bates) shaved their heads in support of Julie and anyone else who has been affected by cancer at some point in their lives. And during one of NZ's coldest weeks! It's not too late to sponsor us!

We're raising money for Breast Cancer Research, a very worthy charity whose sole aim is to find a cure by 2018. Your contribution will go a long way to help, so please dig deep and sponsor us online.

Many thanks for your support!

And a big thanks to Snip Salons on the Terrace for offering to do the shaving for us! (http://www.snipsalons.co.nz/)
