Set up your page & start fundraising
Get your page ready to go. Whether you’re registering for yourself, your workplace or your school, share why you’re standing in solidarity with teens facing cancer.
Keep your supporters updated about any upcoming fundraising activities you’re planning, keep track of your goals, and keep giving them a shout out when they donate—because every dollar they give makes a difference.
Go bold & spread the word
Tell your friends, family, gym buddies — even your barber — that you’re taking on the Big Bold Hair Challenge! Share your why, set a goal, and invite others to join or support you.
Then on 1 October, go big: cut, colour, shave — whatever bold means to you. Make it a moment, snap some pics, and celebrate. Thank your supporters and challenge them to go bold too!
The Big Bold Badges of Honour can be yours
Earn badges as your fundraising game levels up — and score some sweet Canteen swag for your efforts!
