Please watch my video about Plaid for Dad. Plaid for Dad was launched in 2015 to help raise awareness and vital research funds for prostate cancer. It has quickly become a fun and easy way for Canadians to celebrate dad and help the 1 in 8 men who will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.

This year over 1,000 workplaces and thousands of individuals from across Canada are expected to Go Plaid through donations, fundraising and events. The Friday before Father’s Day is officially designated as the day to wear Plaid for Dad. Participants will share photos online using the hashtag #PlaidforDad to show their support and help spread the word.
