Tip of the Hats is an annual live streamed charity event hosted by the competitive Team Fortress 2 community. The purpose of the event is to entertain the community and to collect monetary and in-game item donations from the community for One Step Camp, a nonprofit organization that sends cancer-afflicted children to camp.

Timeline
The first event, held in April 2013, lasted 36 hours and raised over $35,000. Players from around the world participated in the live stream and helped to make it one of the biggest events in Team Fortress 2 history, with more than 65,000 people tuning in.
The second event, held in March 2014, lasted 36 hours and raised over $108,000, with more than 580,000 people tuning in.
Item auctions
Since in-game items would be of no use to One Step Camp, a number of donated in-game items ranging from strange weapons to unusual cosmetic items were sold to players for money during multiple silent auctions.
