Hats for Hope

We’re raising funds and awareness for brain cancer, one hat at a time.

Every day, 27 Canadians will hear the words, “You have a brain tumour.”

Eight of them will find out they have brain cancer.

No matter their diagnosis, their lives will forever be changed.

We’re here to share hope!

Hope through research.
Hope through information and education.
Hope through support.
Hope through advocacy.

While we also hope for a cure, we’re actively working towards one.

With every purchase of a toque, mittens or hoodie, you’re joining the movement to provide hope and find a cure for this devastating disease.

About Hats for Hope

October 24, 2018, was declared the first annual Brain Cancer Awareness Day by the House of Commons in Canada, thanks to lobbying efforts from Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada and our incredible community.
 
This year also marked the first Hats for Hope campaign, which saw Canadians wear their hats in support of brain cancer awareness while sharing photos on social media with the hashtag, #HatsForHope.
 
We proved that together, we can make an impact!
 
Let’s continue that momentum this year, wearing our toque, mittens or hoodie, in support of Hats for Hope and Canada’s brain tumour community.

Take a picture and share in on social media using the hashtag #HatsForHope and #HatsForHope and tag @BrainTumourFdn !
