Shave for the Brave

08/14/2026

Glen Curtis and Team Terra Nova have done it again! Glen rallied the troops to back his Shave offshore and raised nearly $4,000 to support programs and resources that help young adults living with, through, and beyond cancer! We’re extremely grateful for Glen’s continued support over the last decade and more. 💛 See you Saturday in Big Tom’s Shed! 🤘

If you’d like to organize a Shave with your team, office, school, or community (or want to do it solo!), visit shaveforthebrave.ca or send us a message! We’d love to help you fundraise this year! 🪒

We're not done yet! 💙

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, Shave for the Brave has already raised $21,661! 👏

Bert kept his promise and shaved his head at the 29th Annual Hickman Car & Bike Show, but the fundraising doesn't stop there.

Our goal is $35,000, and we're getting closer with every donation.

If you've been meaning to give, now's the time. Every dollar makes a difference and helps support an incredible cause.

Let's finish strong and see if we can reach $35,000 together! 💙

Hickman Automotive Group's Car & Bike Show is always a highlight of the summer! At this year’s show, the group raised $20,000 to support the programs and resources Young Adult Cancer Canada offers those aged 18 to 39 who were diagnosed with cancer before the age of 40!

Thanks to everyone who was part of the Showroom Shave, and thanks to Joe Chase for photographing and capturing such an exciting day!

A brave morning at the Club. 💙

Today, shavers, supporters, sponsors, donors, guests, and members of the Calgary Petroleum Club community came together for Shave for the Brave in support of Young Adult Cancer Canada.
