The Keep A Breast Foundation, a nonprofit focused on breast cancer education and early detection, announced it will return to Vans Warped Tour 2026 with a newly designed booth, a first-of-its-kind crypto partnership, and retail pre-party activations with Zumiez across all three U.S. stops. The foundation, which has been part of Warped Tour since 1998, is entering its 26th year of participation with expanded community-driven initiatives.
For the first time, KAB is embracing crypto philanthropy through a partnership with fomo, a social media platform designed to make cryptocurrency safe and simple. The foundation serves as the sole nonprofit beneficiary of the Boobillions ($boob) project on the Solana blockchain, which has already generated nearly $100,000 for breast cancer prevention, education, and wellness. According to the announcement, this marks a novel approach to fundraising within the nonprofit sector.
“The Keep A Breast Foundation is filling a critical gap in breast cancer education by reaching young people before they become patients,” the organization stated. Its programs, including the "i love boobies!" campaign and the Keep A Breast app, aim to empower Gen Alpha, Gen Z, and millennials with prevention-focused information. The foundation was founded in 2000 and operates as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
At the Warped Tour stops, fans in Washington, D.C., will have exclusive opportunities for meet and greets with bands Meet Me at The Altar and Daisy Grenade at the KAB booth. Limited edition i love boobies! merchandise will be available at the booth and at Zumiez stores while supplies last. The pre-party activations with Zumiez are designed to engage fans before the tour dates.
The announcement emphasized that KAB’s mission is to reduce breast cancer risk and its impact globally through art, education, prevention, and action. By integrating with the Warped Tour culture, the foundation continues to leverage music and community to spread its message. The crypto partnership with fomo and the Boobillions project represents a strategic move to tap into new donor demographics and funding streams.
Industry observers note that this collaboration highlights the growing intersection of social causes and digital assets, potentially setting a precedent for other nonprofits. However, the foundation included a disclaimer that cryptocurrency investments carry inherent risks and that the press release does not constitute financial advice or an endorsement of any investment strategy. The Keep A Breast Foundation said it does not endorse or recommend any specific cryptocurrency investments.
The Vans Warped Tour 2026 will take place across three U.S. cities, with specific dates and locations to be announced. The foundation’s involvement underscores its long-standing commitment to meeting young people where they are, using the platform of live music to educate and empower.
