Shave For A Cure 2023

STC is proud to participate in the annual Shave for a Cure event, which supports the Leukaemia & Blood Cancer NZ Foundation. As a community, we believe in the importance of social justice, and we take Jesus' challenge to help the poor in Matthew's Gospel seriously. Thanks to the heart of our amazing community and past participants, I am proud to say, we have raised just over $80,000 in my time at school alone! This year I aim for us to reach $100,000.

From next week until 05/04/23 We will begin our drive to raise funds for such an awesome cause.

If you want to have a head start! Feel free to sign up on the Shave for a Cure website and join the team! (St Thomas of Canterbury College, shave date 05/04/23):

Before signing up, we encourage all students to have a chat with their parents to ensure they are comfortable with the commitment. Thank you for your support in this important cause.
