Stripping for a Cure: Casting Light, Healing, and Hope

At glassybaby, every purchase gives back to people, planet, and animals — but sometimes, a partnership shines extra bright. Today, we’re honored to highlight Stripping for a Cure, a remarkable group of women and men in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, who are turning their love of fly fishing into a powerful force for healing. 

More Than a Name 

The name Stripping for a Cure comes from the fly-fishing technique of “stripping line,” but behind the playful nod lies a life-changing mission. Founded by women whose own lives have been touched by cancer, this group channels passion, resilience, and community into raising funds for neighbors facing the overwhelming costs and challenges of treatment. 

Each summer, they come together on the river to fish, celebrate, and host a weekend full of games, auctions, and heartfelt stories from those fighting cancer — whether for themselves or alongside a loved one. Every dollar raised from this spirited gathering supports the Oncology Patient Support Fund and the Cancer Survivorship Program at St. John’s Health Foundation. 

These programs provide more than financial relief for medical bills. They ensure cancer patients and their families have access to holistic care like acupuncture, massage, yoga, counseling, and other therapies that nurture body, mind, and spirit. Stripping for a Cure has become the leading donor to the Survivorship Program, making it possible for patients in Jackson Hole to receive compassionate, whole-person care during one of life’s most difficult journeys. 

Why Their Work Matters 

For many patients, a cancer diagnosis brings not just physical hardship, but emotional and financial strain. Stripping for a Cure raises funds to ease those burdens. Whether it’s covering treatment costs, offering restorative therapies, or simply reminding patients that their community is behind them, this group provides light in the darkest of times. 

Their impact is measured not just in dollars raised but in lives touched — each story of relief, resilience, and healing is a testament to their incredible dedication.
