The Bra-ha-ha is a one-of-a-kind fundraising experience that celebrates survivorship and artistry. With a 38-C bra as their canvas, interested community members are challenged to construct unique and uplifting art using breast cancer prevention as inspiration. These heartwarming masterpieces are unveiled at our annual Bra-ha-ha Awards Show & Auction, which serves as our tribute to those affected by breast cancer. The Bra-ha-ha encompasses a series of inspiring events including the Bra-ha-ha 5K, the Awards Show & Auction, a week-long bra art exhibit, and third party philanthropy events. All Bra-ha-ha seriously uplifting events raise funds to provide FREE mammograms and related breast health services to uninsured and underinsured in the community.
