Brain Cancer Awareness Day

October 24 is Brain Cancer Awareness Day in Canada. Help us raise awareness and provide much-needed HOPE!

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.

Hats for Hope

 

 

On October 24, 2018, the House of Commons in Canada declared the first annual Brain Cancer Awareness Day, made possible through the passionate advocacy of Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada and the unwavering voices of our incredible community.

That same year, we launched the very first Hats for Hope campaign, inviting Canadians to wear their hats in solidarity, share their photos online, and shine a light on brain cancer awareness. The movement sparked a wave of compassion, connection, and courage across the country.

We proved that together, we can make an impact!

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

On October 24, 2026, Brain Cancer Awareness Day, we invite you to raise awareness by wearing your #HatsForHope toque, mittens or hoodie, and post a photo of yourself on social media, using the hashtag #HatsForHope. Don’t forget to tag @BrainTumourFdn!

Thanks to our distributor New Era Grafix, proceeds from every item sold will be donated to Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada, helping us continue our important mission to find the cause of and cure for brain tumours and brain cancer.
