The soap star’s youngster is set to shave her head on her 11th birthday in October, in the hope of raising $5000 for the charity.

“I’m a very proud dad,” Moloney said.
“Erin said she wanted to do something to help other people. She has done this completely off her own bat. That she is thinking of others in this way is amazing.
“She knew of things like The World’s Greatest Shave and chopping your hair off. My wife, Alison, and I went ‘wow’. We gave her a few weeks to think about it but she hasn’t changed her mind.

“If anything, she is more determined to do it. I’m even happy to accept donations from Home and Away fans too.”
Erin has already exceeded her initial target of $1000 via her Everyday Hero page. She is up to $1423 and counting with a new target of $5000.
“I just want to raise money to help other kids and help the scientists,” Erin said. “The decision came pretty easily. The kids at school have said they can’t wait to see me because I’ll look so different.”

Moloney is no stranger to a haircut. One of Neighbours’ most memorable scenes of all time is Jarrod “Toadie” Rebecchi getting his mullet chopped off in 1999.
“I was pretty ecstatic about that when it happened,” Moloney said
“Erin is doing the same thing but for a much better cause. Cancer is one of those things where we all know someone affected by it.
“It is around way too much and the ones that affect kids are particularly traumatic. Erin is a kid helping kids.”
