Headbands of Hope

Tuesday, December 3, 2019 3:30 AM

When shopping for the holidays I like to shop locally, I try to shop small businesses and brands with a purpose. 

Enter...

Headbands of Hope 


Inspired by a summer internship at a wish-granting organization, Jess Ekstrom Founder/ CEO saw a lot of kids loved to wear headbands after losing their hair to chemotherapy. After a quick google search, she realized that there were no businesses donating headbands to kids with cancer, only wigs and hats. Jess started Headbands of Hope out of her dorm room in college with two headbands, her computer, and a burning passion to help these kids.

 Today, Headbands of Hope is carried in thousands of stores across the world. They've been featured on the TODAY Show, Good Morning America, Vanity Fair, Seventeen Magazine, and even supported by celebrities like Lea Michele, Lauren Conrad, Kelsea Ballerini, Lili Reinhart and more.

But more importantly, Headbands of Hope has donated headbands to every children's hospital in America and 15 countries. When you order a headband, you'll even receive a donation confirmation stating the exact hospital your purchase benefitted. So far Headbands of Hope have donated over 450,000 to children with cancer! 

YOUR HEADBAND WILL SERVE AS A REMINDER WHEN YOU WEAR IT
THAT SMALL ACTS OF KINDNESS CAN MAKE A HUGE IMPACT.

I feel it is so important to give back during the holidays, 
What are some of your favorite organizations or brands with purpose?

xx, Elise

    That is wonderful! I know wigs can be so itchy so many girls prefer headbands when they loose their hair for medical reasons. Such a great cause!
