I am riding my Triumph Bonneville from Auckland to Invercargill and everywhere in between to raise awareness for women with cancer.

Auckland

Please donate what you can to my charity of choice LGFB and tell a friend in need of this support group. Welcome

Look Good Feel Better is a free service offered to women undergoing treatment for cancer. We help restore and enhance the appearance of cancer patients during and after treatment.

We aim to put a smile on the face of every woman with cancer. We are there with support, guidance and free makeover workshops at a difficult time in their lives when they need it most. At Look Good Feel Better we understand that the way we look on the outside can have a powerful influence on how we feel on the inside. With makeup, skincare, skills and a positive attitude, we transform the look and the outlook of over 3000 New Zealand women with cancer every year. With over 196 workshops, across 24 New Zealand locations, our programme is supported and endorsed by the Cancer Society of New Zealand. We are also proudly assisted by the Cosmetic Toiletry and Fragrance Association of New Zealand (CTFA). Every year, member companies of the CTFA provide millions of dollars worth of products to support our workshops. Please browse our website to learn more about our people, our work and our results.

Dina Komineas' involvement (page creator)

I am passionate about LGFB as a volunteer in their workshops in Australia and have helped raise awarness for the group in NZ. Having had aunties and friends with cancer I feel the more support we can give those who suffer the more we can make them smile and make a difference to the way women feel. A LGFB workshop touches the hearts of women so I am riding to remote country towns and cities and will distribute information on LGFB and my donation page to raise awarness and funds to support this none profit organisation.
