The Mark Hughes Foundation earned widespread recognition during a special event, specifically during the 10th annual Beanie for Brain Cancer Round on Thursday. Wests Tigers paid tribute to a late coach, Alex Clarke, by wearing beanies and clinching the event's name.
Every team in the NRL showed up, donning match-day beanies to highlight brain cancer research. Nine’s A Current Affair ran a heartfelt segment on a coach’s personal struggle with this devastating condition, intertwining his journey with the foundation’s noble mission to fuel critical research toward an eventual cure.
