Brooklyn Scouts - Shave for a Cure
Kia ora,
We have a Brooklyn Scout, Alex, who would like to support Leukaemia & Blood Cancer NZ by doing Shave for a Cure. Our Kaiārahi (leaders) are also showing their support for this great cause - Joss and David will also be shaving their hair.
Please make a donation on our shave for a cure page to help support this vital cause - (https:/shaveforacure.everydayhero.com/nz/brooklyn-scouts)
David will also allow the highest pledge to shave his head into whatever style they like (though at the end of the night it will all come off!!) So show your support for Alex, David, Joss, and other participants by visiting the pledge page (link above) making a donation. The hair shaving happens Tuesday 22 September at the Brooklyn Scout Hall (between 7pm and 9pm). Please forward this email to those you know to show we care about saving lives.
