Unleashed Brands Foundation Commits $1 Million to Pediatric Blood Cancer Initiative
In an inspiring move to support childhood cancer research, the Unleashed Brands Foundation has announced a remarkable pledge of $1 million directed towards the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's signature initiative, the Dare to Dream Project. This pledge extends over the next five years and underscores the dedication of Unleashed Brands toward making a significant difference in the lives of children facing blood cancer.
The Unleashed Brands Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Unleashed Brands—recognized as the premier youth enrichment platform in the world—aims to cater to the needs of young individuals across various communities. The donation aims not only to advance medical research in blood cancer treatment but also to enhance the quality of life for patients and their families during difficult times.
Commitment to Change
The Dare to Dream Project represents LLS's primary strategy to revolutionize pediatric blood cancer care. Through this $1 million commitment, the Unleashed Brands Foundation positions itself as a pivotal ally in this ambitious endeavor. According to Michael Browning Jr., the CEO, 'At Unleashed Brands, we are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of children and families in the communities we serve. We're proud to partner with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and assist in their lifesaving work of transforming treatment and care for kids with blood cancer.'
The foundation is not only about direct funding; it integrates community-based activities. Annual charitable initiatives will navigate through various franchise brands under the Unleashed umbrella, which includes prominent names such as Urban Air Adventure Park, The Little Gym, and Sylvan Learning, among others. Patrons of these venues will have opportunities to contribute through small actions—like rounding up their bills or purchasing special merchandise, such as “Sock it to Cancer” socks, with the proceeds directly funding blood cancer research.
A Legacy of Support
This partnership is a continuation of the charitable endeavors spearheaded by the Unleashed Brands Foundation. Since its establishment, it has engaged in various supportive efforts including the annual Sock it to Cancer campaign and grant initiatives for young survivors such as Samuel, who has bravely battled leukemia. The formalization of this partnership, beginning in May 2025 and extending through 2030, aims to provide both critical financial backing and enhanced visibility for the LLS's vital campaigns.
Coker Powell, the Chief Revenue Officer of LLS, acknowledged the impact of the collaboration, stating, 'We are proud to partner with the Unleashed Brands Foundation to help power innovative research, new, safer treatments, support services, and advocacy for kids. This generous commitment will make a meaningful difference for those facing blood cancers.'
