About Titz'n Glitz
Titz'n Glitz Halifax raises funds for a project that was initiated in 2000 called Halifax on the Front Line (breast cancer fund).

Money raised through Titz'n Glitz feeds this fund which provides short term financial assistance to Nova Scotia men and women with breast cancer who are in financial need. The funds do not go to research but to more immediate circumstances.

Funds provided by Titz'n Glitz are distributed with the help of hospitals and social work departments across the province, to aid breast cancer survivors in financial need. Often, some of the most stressful realities are of a financial nature, including incidental costs. Women were missing chemo treatments because they couldn't afford a babysitter.

 

We are proud to state that Titz'n Glitz has raised over $600,000 to help breast cancer survivors in need.
