Lacrosse for Life Head-Shaving Event

Sponsored by The Hope Street Foundation

We are proud to announce the 2026 Lacrosse for Life Head Shaving event supporting Breast Cancer research at The Dana Farber Cancer Institute was a huge success. 33 teams participated to raise over $1 million dollars! A huge thanks to all our supporters and participants who rallied around such an incredible cause!

Since the inaugural event in 2020, we have continued to see the powerful impact the lacrosse community has when we come together for a greater cause. The Lacrosse for Life Head-Shaving event has raised over $5,000,000 across 4 campaigns with over 6000 shavers. The outpouring of participation and support from the community serves as an inspiration and reminds us of the strength and compassion that lies within our community.
