Emily's Hug Mee Drive

Squishmallow donations bring an immediate sense of comfort and joy to children facing some of their most difficult moments. For many patients, receiving a soft, friendly plush to hold onto provides more than a distraction; it offers security, emotional support, and a reminder that they are not along. These small acts of kindness often become cherished memories for families and help create a more positive healing enviornment within the hospital.

Gold Together

Gold Together is a pediatric cancer awareness and fundraising initiative that unites communities under the gold ribbon, the universal symbol for childhood cancer. HeroBuds participates by organizing local events that turn the Lehigh Valley gold, raising critical funds to support research and empower young fighters in their journey toward health and hope. Every ribbon worn and every dollar raised brings us closer to a future where no child has to fear a cancer diagnosis.

Other HeroBuds Programs

We’re always looking for new programs to join the HeroBuds family. Do you have an organization that would like to be a part of HeroBuds and help raise awareness for pediatric cancer research? Get in touch using the button below!
