Farmers Auckland CBD Shave for a Cure 2016 a hit

1 April 2016 -

Hundreds of people turned up for the launch of the iconic Shave for a Cure 2016 event held at the Farmers Auckland CBD store, corner of Queen and Victoria St, on March 31, 2016.

Hosted by Hilary Barry, the two-hour long event saw brave Shavees lose their beloved locks to the razor in a bid to raise money and awareness for Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand.

New Zealand celebrities Art Green, Otis Frizzell, Michael Murphy, Shortland Street star Kerry Lee-Dewing, and Filthy Rich actors Alex Tarrant and Emma Fenton, rolled their sleeves up to help these daring volunteers create their new hairless-do.

While this is the first Shave for a Cure event for the Farmers Auckland CBD store, other stores around the nation are no stranger to it. Each store will be running their own Shave for a Cure fundraiser over the next 10 days. You can find your local store here.
