Dare to Hope

Dare to Hope is Hawthorn Football Club's Offical Charity Partner.

This year, we are proud to host the fifth annual Dare to Hope match as we take on Geelong in our Easter Monday blockbuster at the MCG. In honour of Hawthorn Premiership player and Norm Smith Medallist, Paul Dear, we’ll raise much needed awareness and funding for pancreatic cancer. 
With Paul’s children, Calsher and Maya, now carrying on the family legacy at Hawthorn, we invite the entire family to stand with us. Together, we can raise awareness for those impacted by this disease and fund the research that is much needed to change the odds.
