HATS FOR HOPE
Lifting the Spirits of Cancer Patients on the Central Coast
Welcome to Hats For Hope
Hats For Hope is a non-profit organization which provides wigs and financial gifts
to residents on the Central Coast who are battling cancer.
It was a typical Central Coast cool, foggy mid-morning in October 2001 when Connie Garcin held a “Hat Party and Garden Brunch” to celebrate life with her family and friends – her support team, her confidants, her closest friends – who had helped her through her journey with cancer. Then, just as the sun was piercing the fog, an idea came to Connie and floated through the group of beautifully-coiffed women like a warm breeze – and “Hats for Hope” was born.
Connie's legacy Is going strong, and she would be so pleased with the length & depth of Central Coast residents Hats for Hope has helped through their cancer journey.
Since 2001 Hats For Hope has been raising funds in order to lift spirits and lighten the financial burden that a cancer diagnosis can bring. Hats For Hope raises funds through our Annual Benefit & Auction and relies on the generosity of local individuals and businesses. 100% of the funds Hats For Hope raises stay here on the Central Coast.
Because YOU Care There IS Hope
Since 2015, Hats for Hope has granted over $350K to Central Coast cancer patients struggling financially due to their diagnosis.
