Kim Heath Hats for Hope Fashion Show presented by Wehr Constructors, Inc.
with additional support from R & R Incorporated of Louisville

The Kim Heath Hats for Hope Fashion Show, benefiting UofL Health – Brown Cancer Center, is presented by Wehr Constructors, Inc. with additional support from R & R Incorporated of Louisville. It will be held from 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m on Sunday, April 19, 2026 at the Mellwood Art Center. As a preview to Derby season, the $100 ticket includes brunch, shopping and a Derby-themed fashion show featuring patients and providers from Brown Cancer Center. Tickets may be purchased here.

The fashion show is named in honor of a former Brown Cancer Center patient, Kim Heath. Kim was an inspiration to so many, including her team at Brown Cancer Center, who cared for her for six years while she faced metastatic melanoma. She was a dedicated wife, mother and grandmother. Despite her diagnosis, she always thought of others.

The Hats for Hope Fashion Show fundraiser was Kim’s way of giving back to Brown Cancer Center. Her wish was to help others along their journey. All funds raised through the fashion show go back to Brown Cancer Center to help other patients facing a difficult diagnosis. Together, we can continue the work about which she was most passionate.

About Kim Heath:

Kim Heath (1966-2023) was an inspiration to so many, including those who treated her at UofL Health – Brown Cancer Center. Despite battling metastatic melanoma for six years, she always thought of others.

The idea for the Hats for Hope Fashion Show was born out of Kim’s desire to give back to UofL Health – Brown Cancer Center. Her wish was to help others along their journeys. It is therefore only fitting that the show be named in her memory. Together, we can continue the work about which she was most passionate.
