For the second year in a row, in recognition of our effort to raise awareness and funds on behalf of cancer-fighting organizations, Tap Cancer Out has been named as one of the Classy 100. The Classy 100 acknowledges the top charity organizations for their efforts to make a positive impact in the community and beyond. Tap Cancer Out ranked #84 overall, including #36 in the Health Services category.

Thanks in part of the hundreds of volunteers and fundraisers, we successfully raised well over $100,000 to benefit the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, our charity partner for 2014/15. With the success of our trademark fundraising event, the Tap Cancer Out Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Open, martial artists from California to Oklahoma and even our neighbors to the north, Toronto, Canada, have participated in the fundraising tournaments.

Since 2011, we have seen exponential growth in our efforts and expanded out of the northeast region with our inaugural Winter BJJ Open in early 2015. While we at Tap Cancer Out are pleased to be named as one of the Classy 100, we understand that the battle against cancer is still an ongoing effort. Look for new Tap Cancer Out merchandise as well as our BJJ Open coming to new cities as well.

Of course, none of this would be possible without the support of the generosity of our donors, volunteers, fundraisers, and most importantly, the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu community.
