Hi everyone! 💛

We are so incredibly grateful for the support you’ve shown for our Warrior Paks—this community continues to amaze us.

We did want to share an important update:
We’ve been notified by the hospital Child Life team that some donations are being dropped off directly at the hospital. While we truly appreciate the generosity, the hospital is not able to accept or manage these donations.

Our goal with Warrior Paks is to support Child Life—not add to their already full plates. In order to do that, all items need to come through us first so we can properly sort, organize, and assemble complete packs for the kids.

Please do NOT drop donations off at the hospital.

Instead, you can:
✨ Order directly from our Amazon Wish List (ships to us)
✨ Arrange a local drop-off with us (private drop off in Seaford, VA)
✨ Ship items from other retailers directly to us (message us for address)

If you’re unsure how to get items to us, just send us a message—we’re happy to help!

Thank you for being part of this and for helping us do this the right way for the kids and the amazing Child Life team 💛

🎉 A Birthday Challenge: 13 for 13 🎉

Today is Wes’ baby brother, Eli’s, 13th birthday. It’s incredible watching him grow into the kind, compassionate young man he is today. I know his big brother would be so proud of him. 💛

Wes always cared deeply about other kids going through cancer treatment, and that spirit of kindness continues through our family and through the work of Warrior Paks.

So today, we’re doing a simple birthday challenge:

🎁 13 PJ’s for his 13th birthday.

If we can add 13 more sets of pajamas today, that means 13 more steps closer to completing our Warrior Paks for kids going through pediatric cancer treatment.

Right now we need:
👦 Boys pajamas (all sizes babies through adult sizes for teens)
👧 Girls pajamas (all sizes babies through adult sizes for teens)

Because of your kindness, 171 comfort items have already been donated. Let’s see if we can add 13 more today to celebrate Eli’s birthday with an act of kindness for kids who need it most.

🛒 Donate from our wishlist —> https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/1FA4CSCRC8RN0?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_ggr-subnav-share_W5A01B1TQ5T827Z8KGYT&language=en-US
📦 Ship to us directly (message us for address)
🚗 Message us for local drop-off in Seaford, VA

Thank you for continuing to show these kids they are not fighting alone. 💛

Wes believed deeply that even during cancer treatment, kids deserved to still feel like kids.

Warrior Paks were created for the moments people don’t often see — when a child gets sick unexpectedly and has nothing to change into except a hospital gown.

Wes experienced this more times than we can count.

A soft pair of pajamas.
Clean underwear.
Warm grip socks.

Simple comforts that can restore dignity during a really hard day.

Because of your incredible support, 92 comfort items have already been purchased for Warrior Paks.

Our goal this week is to reach 125 comfort items so we can begin assembling our first hospital deliveries.

We especially need pajamas in all sizes to help complete sets.

Wishlist will be in the comments below.

You can help us send the first Warrior Paks to hospitals that meant so much to Wes’ journey.

Thank you for helping us continue spreading comfort, one child at a time. 💛

Yesterday, we officially launched Wes’ Warrior Paks… and something really special happened.

The first Warrior Paks have already started being sponsored. ❤️

Each item ordered means a child going through cancer treatment will have clean pajamas, underwear, and socks during one of the hardest moments of their day — when illness or treatment takes away comfort and dignity.

What may seem small becomes everything in a hospital room.

Thank you for helping us begin.

If you’d like to be part of this mission, you can sponsor a Warrior Pak here by purchasing from our wishlist:

💛 INTRODUCING: Wes’ Warrior Paks 💛

Today we’re proud to launch a new initiative from The Wes Strong Foundation — created from lived experience and built with one simple goal:

To bring comfort and dignity to children facing cancer treatment.

If you’ve walked the pediatric cancer road, you know there are moments no one prepares you for — long hospital days, treatment side effects, and times when a child has nothing clean or comfortable to wear except a thin hospital gown.

Wes’ Warrior Paks were created for those moments.

Each Warrior Pak includes:
✔️ Pajamas
✔️ Underwear
✔️ Grip socks

Simple items — but during treatment, they mean comfort, privacy, and the chance to still feel like a kid.

💛 The first Warrior Paks will be delivered to two hospitals that were a huge part of Wes’ cancer journey.

🛒 You can help us launch this mission by:

Purchasing items from our Amazon registry and ship directly to us:

https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/1FA4CSCRC8RN0?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_ggr-subnav-share_YDXG5H981PW2AGD5CDDA&language=en-US

📍 Local to Seaford, VA?
Message us to arrange a local drop-off delivery.

Every donation helps deliver comfort when families need it most — and continues Wes’ legacy of caring for kids still in the fight. 💛

If you’ve walked the pediatric cancer road, you know.

There are days when treatment causes sickness.
There are nights when accidents happen.
There are moments when a child has nothing to change into except a thin ill-fitting hospital gown.

Those moments stay with you.

On International Childhood Cancer Day, we are proud to officially announce - Wes’ Warrior Pak Initiative.

Created to meet a very real and often unseen need, each Pak will provide new pajamas, underwear, and socks to children in treatment — restoring comfort and dignity in the hardest moments.

Because dignity matters.
Because comfort matters.
Because these kids matter.

This initiative will reach beyond our local community hospitals.

And soon, we’ll be inviting you to help.

A community collection drive is coming. 💛

Inspired by Wes. Built for warriors.

💛 We show up where love is needed. 💛

The Wes Strong Foundation supports children and families impacted by pediatric cancer and the world around them. From helping local kids and families during their hardest days, to supporting wildlife rehabbers, to rolling up our sleeves for community cleanups — this work is about compassion in action.

It’s all done in Wes’ name, and it’s all fueled by an incredible community that believes kindness still matters. 🖤💛

Thank you for standing with us. Thank you for caring. And thank you for helping us make a difference — in big ways and small ones.
