For Pediatric Cancer

About Rising Hope

Breweries across the country are coming together to help end childhood cancer through the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation’s Brewing Funds the Cure campaign. At the heart of the program is Rising Hope, an annual collaborative beer that gives craft breweries an opportunity to make a meaningful impact in their communities.

Country Malt Group is proud to partner with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation by donating 100% of the ingredients for one 20 BBL batch of Rising Hope for participating breweries.

*Limited to the first 50 breweries nationwide.

September is Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month, and May is National Cancer Research Month – two meaningful opportunities to rally your community in support of children battling cancer. While we encourage breweries to participate during either of these months, we know every brewery has its own schedule. Whether you join us in September, May, or another time that works best for your team, every pint poured helps fund groundbreaking pediatric cancer research and brings us one step closer to ending childhood cancer.

Get connected with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation to join the fight against childhood cancer.
