UPMC Children’s Hospital Foundation

Every October, schools and businesses across the region engage in fundraising by asking each participant to make a $5 donation (or other designated amount) in order to wear a favorite hat throughout the day.

The campaign kicks off annually the first Friday in October. Schools and organizations can choose their preferred participation date(s) when registering.

All proceeds from Wear a Hat for Cancer benefit the Division of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology and the Division of Blood and Marrow Transplantation (BMT) and Cellular Therapies at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh.
