Warm your Head and Heart!
Our friends at Mark Hughes Foundation have just released this year’s beanie designs! When you buy a beanie, all of the proceeds will support crucial brain cancer research and treatment.
Each year, about 1,800 Australians are diagnosed with brain cancer and sadly, 1,500 die. Since establishment in 2014, the Mark Hughes Foundation has played a significant part in addressing the chronic underfunding of brain cancer research.
In fact, in 2022 the Mark Hughes Foundation established the Mark Hughes Foundation Centre for Brain Cancer Research which drives world-leading research programs to improve the lives of people with brain cancer today and increase survival rates in the future.
Your support will play a crucial role in driving critical research, education, and health care improvements for brain cancer patients, their families and carers. You can support this important cause by:
- Buying a beanie
- Hosting your own Beanie Day fundraiser
- Get to a NRL game this Beanie for Brain Cancer Round
- Making a tax-deductible donation to the Mark Hughes Foundation Centre for Brain Cancer Research
Follow along on their socials for more updates and exciting announcements!

To every single person that has supported Mark Hughes Foundation and bought a beanie over the last 8 years, I say thank you from the bottom of my heart. We are giving hope to so many, including myself.”
