Jazwares is teaming up with the American Cancer Society (ACS) to raise funds in support of the society’s mission to find cures for the disease. Launching this month, Stephamos, a 12-inch, blue and yellow-colored phoenix plush, features the society’s logo embroidered on its belly, and aims to spread positivity and hope to cancer patients nationwide.
Preorders are open for this limited-edition character, with 100% of the net proceeds benefiting the ACS. The organization will donate 2,500 Stephamos Squishmallows to its Hope Lodge communities nationwide, helping patients find comfort and strength during their treatment journey.
Laura Zebersky, President at Jazwares, shares her thoughts: “At Jazwares, we believe in making a meaningful impact in the lives of children and families through play. With this special Squishmallows, we have the opportunity not only to support the American Cancer Society’s critical mission but also bring smiles to patients and their families when they need it most.”
Nickki Reeves, ACS senior vice president for Enterprise Corporate Partnerships & Sports Alliances, adds: “Stephamos Squishmallows bring hope, healing, and hugs to families facing cancer. We’re grateful to Jazwares for creating Stephamos and helping brighten the days of people facing cancer and their loved ones.”
