General Manager Has A Close Shave

David Borg, the Asia Pacific General Manager at Tickets.com will be participating in the World’s Greatest Shave to raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation. Since 1998, World’s Greatest Shave has raised in excess of $106 million and the event is the Foundations biggest source of income.

Every hour, someone in Australia is diagnosed with leukaemia, lymphoma or myeloma. Every two hours, someone dies from one of these blood cancers. The money raised is used by the Leukaemia Foundation to fund services to support patients and families living with leukaemias, lymphomas, myeloma and related blood disorders. All services are free! Fundraising efforts also fund blood cancer research to find better treatments and cures.

David is aiming to raise $5,000 so if you can help, please use the link above to make a donation directly to the cause. You can also follow him on Facebook at ProVenue APAC to see updates and to view pictures of David after the shave.

David’s Great Shave will occur on the 30th March.
