About

Hats Off For Cancer collects and donates hats of all kinds to the courageous children who lose their hair due to cancer treatments. 

As one of the leading and original hat programs, Hats Off For Cancer has donated more than 2 million brand new hats to hospitals, camps, and individuals worldwide since 1996. 

 

The program was founded by Tara (Lawrence) Bracher at age 14 after losing her grandfather to prostate cancer.  Attending fundraising events for cancer research, Tara met kids her age who were battling cancer.  The children told her over and over again how much they hated to lose their hair.  After hearing this from so many children, Tara knew she could do something to help.  In 1996, she began writing letters to companies, sports teams, and celebrities asking for the simple donation of a hat.  The charity received more than 1,000 hats in the first three months, and has grown in the past 16 years to help more than 1.5 million children and set up drives on five different continents.

 

Still run as 100% volunteer, all funds go directly to purchasing, storing, and shipping hats, as well as helping cancer patients' families in need, and running the Mad Hatter drive events around the world.

 

Hats Off For Cancer is recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization.

Update #3

FansForDanneel.com is a fansite dedicated to Danneel, to provide news, updates, images and videos!
This year, 18th March, is Danneel's 37th birthday and we wanted to celebrate it by hosting a small fundraiser, with the donations going to a specific charity!
At this point, we are starting with a goal of $500 which we feel is generous and also do-able! However more than this amount can be raised, which would be even more generous!
Going through numerous charities, we decided to raise the funds for a charity that Jensen and Danneel have raised money for before; Hat's Off For Cancer. If you can remember, before their daughter Justice was born, instead of gifts, the couple asked for donation's here, which surpassed the initial amount!
Hat's Off For Cancer is a very special charity as it provides hat's for children suffering from the disease. To find out more, check here: http://hatsoffforcancer.org/about/
See the initial post of the official site about Jensen and Danneel's fundraiser: http://hatsoffforcancerblog.com/tag/danneel-harris-ackles/
And the original campaign: https://fundly.com/baby-ackles-gift
Just to be clear, FansForDanneel.com receives NO MONEY from this fundraiser. 100% (unless a small percentage applies towards fees) goes towards the charity.
We would like to thank people beforehand and would love if you could spread the word.
Ideally the campaign should last at least 60 days, which puts the end date in early March. Updates shall be posted continuously on our social media and website:
