Come check out the RESILIENCE GIVES UNIQUE POP-up store at Christiana
Mall to bring a bit of warmth to children with cancer!
There is a lot about fighting cancer that is unpleasant to say the
least and two cancer survivors are on a national tour to bring that
warmth to those children. Jake Teitelbaum and co-owner Lexi Corrion
are taking their custom, sock-covered Airstream trailer to sell these
socks designed by pediatric cancer patients to raise awareness as well
as provide free socks to children fighting cancer.
Their company, Resilience Gives [http://www.resilience.gives/], works
with pediatric cancer patients to design cozy socks inspired by their
experiences and then manufactures them. _For every pair purchased, one
pair is donated to a child battling cancer._ The tour, which began in
October, will donate thousands of socks and interview families
impacted by pediatric cancer. In each of the seven city stops,
they’re fueling donations to childrens’ hospitals by running
high-energy pop-up stores out of the eye-catching Airstream in
shopping areas near hospitals. Through these sales and subsequent
donations, Jake and Lexi are bringing warmth to families both inside
and outside of the hospital through their “socks with stories”
movement.
