September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. A month when the world is asked to “Go Gold” for pediatric cancer. Gold was chosen to represent pediatric cancer because gold is a precious metal. And children are our most precious treasure.
Go Gold is also an opportunity for local businesses to support local childhood cancer heroes. Discover how you can shop and give back to hero families.
If you’re a fashionista, sneakerhead, or heel fanatic who loves one-of-a-kind footwear, then check out Saxon Shoes in Short Pump. Saxon Shoes partnered with local artists who hand-painted pairs of shoes. How do you get your hands on these shoes? You gotta win them in Saxon’s online auction.
Proceeds will benefit Connor’s Heroes and two other worthy nonprofits (who also help childhood cancer hero families) – ASK and Noah’s Children. The bidding is now open. It ends on September 30 at 6 pm. Saxon Shoes is at Short Pump Town Center.
Once again, our friends at Once Upon A Child in Midlothian will stand up for childhood cancer heroes with a fundraiser during September’s Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Every FRIDAY in September — 15% of your purchase is given back to Connor’s Heroes.
Once Upon A Child buys and sells gently used kids & teens’ clothes, shoes, toys. You can find your favorite brands at affordable prices. And help children who are battling cancer.
Once Upon A Child in Midlothian is at 9770 Midlothian Turnpike. Come by on Fridays.
