The Keep A Breast Foundation (KAB) is returning to Vans Warped Tour 2026 with expanded activations, including a newly designed booth, a first-of-its-kind crypto partnership, and retail pre-party events with Zumiez across all three U.S. stops. Now in its 26th year, KAB has been part of the Warped Tour fabric since 1998, and this year's efforts aim to reach younger audiences through innovative fundraising and engagement.
KAB is embracing crypto philanthropy through a partnership with fomo, a social media platform designed to make crypto safe and simple for everyday users. As the sole nonprofit beneficiary of the Boobillions ($boob) project on Solana, KAB has already generated nearly $100,000 for breast cancer prevention, education, and wellness. This marks a significant step in leveraging cryptocurrency for charitable causes, allowing fans to contribute through a community-driven platform.
In addition to the crypto initiative, KAB will host retail pre-party activations at Zumiez stores before each Warped Tour date. Fans can purchase limited edition "i love boobies!" merchandise at both the KAB booth and Zumiez locations while supplies last. In Washington, D.C., attendees will have exclusive opportunities for meet and greets with bands Meet Me at The Altar and Daisy Grenade at the KAB booth.
The foundation's return to Warped Tour underscores its long-standing commitment to reaching young people with breast cancer education. Since its founding in 2000, KAB has focused on Gen Alpha, Gen Z, and millennials through programs like the "i love boobies!" campaign and the Keep A Breast app. By embedding itself in music festival culture, KAB continues to fill a critical gap in early detection and prevention education.
The implications of this announcement extend beyond the tour. The crypto partnership with fomo and the $boob project could pave the way for more nonprofits to explore blockchain-based fundraising. For fans, the integration of retail activations at Zumiez makes it easier to support the cause while shopping. As Warped Tour 2026 kicks off, KAB's efforts highlight how traditional nonprofit outreach is evolving to meet younger generations where they are—online, in stores, and at live events.
