Supporting Young Adults with Cancer at the Energy Shave for the Brave
December 1, 2025
In November, Hydro’s President and CEO, Jennifer Williams joined colleagues from ExxonMobil Canada, Equinor Canada, Cenovus and Suncor and the newly-elected Minister of Energy and Mines, the Honourable Lloyd Parrott, for “the most powerful haircut of their lives” during the 2025 Energy Shave in support of Young Adult Cancer Canada (YACC). During the event, Jennifer had 8” of hair cut off while the male participants had their heads shaved.

YACC supports young adults (teens – 30s) who are living with cancer by providing specialized programs for that time of life connecting them to peers and providing a bridge out of the isolation that often occurs.
The 2025 Energy Shave raised $317,802 for YACC programs, bringing the total raised at all Energy Shave events to more than $1.1 million since 2021.
