Handball for Hope 2026 is the inaugural Charity of Hope Signature Event, presented in partnership with One Wall One Cause bringing together youth, athletes, community leaders, and supporters for an unforgettable evening of sport, purpose, and possibility.

This immersive experience will feature live handball action, youth showcase matches, special guest exhibition games, and the presentation of youth scholarships, all in support of expanding access to sport, leadership development, and opportunity for young people across our community.

More than an event, Handball for Hope marks the beginning of a movement — reviving the game of handball while empowering youth, activating public spaces, and building stronger, healthier communities through play.

Proceeds from the evening will directly support Charity of Hope’s children and youth initiatives, including scholarships, YMCA youth programming, and the growth of community handball experiences across Hamilton and surrounding areas.

Join us as we serve hope, build resilience, and create pathways for the next generation — one wall at a time.
