About the B-Strong Fund

The B-Strong fund was founded by Lindsay Bolger, after she had been diagnosed with a rare form of brain tumour in April of 2005. Prior to receiving radiation treatment, she designed a baseball cap in anticipation of hair loss and to help out others who are fighting the same battle.

To date, over 5000 caps have been sold across North America with proceeds targeted towards brain tumour research. Over $200,000 has been raised by B-Strong and has been donated to the following hospitals: Princess Margaret Hospital, Sick Kids, Sunnybrook and Montreal Neurological.

There are times in life when one is faced with unpredictable challenges. In my case, it was a brain tumour. Challenges like these test one’s strength and courage, but most of all they test how one accepts and deals with these. The only way to deal with those is in a positive way. This experience has totally made me realize that with the right attitude and support, you can truly find a positive view for anything.
