AQC SALON

Meet Andrew Quinn Chapman, owner and stylist at AQC Salon in Halifax! Andrew and AQC Salon have been supporting the Summer Bash Against Brain Cancer for the past five years, donating ‘athlete bags’ filled with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion for participants' gym bags. This year, with help from other generous local businesses donating water bottles, protein bars and samples, the bags are better than ever.

Summer Bash Against Brain Cancer, hosted at Blended Athletics, brings together our surrounding community to raise funds and awareness for brain cancer research at the QEII.

Andrew lost a close family member to brain cancer, so he’s especially moved to support this cause. "I think [brain cancer] is one of those things people don't talk about," Andrew says. "But when you start talking about it, people realize it's a lot more common than they think."

Andrew is proud to show up year-round by fundraising for all sorts of local causes, from health care through the QEII Foundation, to food security for Nova Scotians and beyond. To him, giving back is what makes our communities stronger.

“It’s really important to help each other, by doing whatever you can,” he says. “Maybe you don’t have five dollars to donate, but you can share the message. You can be supportive and uplifting.”

Thank you, Andrew and AQC Salon, for believing in community and supporting this incredible event, year after year. Summer Bash Against Brain Cancer is happening this Saturday, August 15! Stay tuned for a record-breaking announcement on the 2026 total raised! 📣
