TORONTO, July 18 (UPI) -- Exotic dancers say they plan to wear bathing suits while raising money for cancer research in Canada's Adult Entertainment Beach Volleyball Challenge.

The dancers will take part in the first annual challenge at the Sports Village Oasis Beach Volleyball Club in Vaughan, Ontario Sunday, the Toronto Sun reported.

The event is a charity for Sunnybrook Hospital's Underwear Affair, which raises money for research of cancers that occur below the waist.

"We just wanted to push the envelope a little bit. It'll be bathing suits. No one will be totally naked -- we hope," organizer Pamela Fitzgerald said

Charitable dancers from the Toronto area are expected to come together for the event, the newspaper said.

"The charity is one that's there to alleviate taboos, so people can get screened for cancers such as colorectal," Fitzgerald said.
