We know that you have choices about where to spend your hard earned money. So here's our bottom line. Like all businesses we need to be profitable so we can continue doing what we love to do.
But at Island Thyme Soap Company that's not enough.
We need to make a difference.
We're on #TEAMBEANS
We chose the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute as our featured cause to raise awareness of pediatric cancer in memory of Francesca "Beans" Kaczynski, who died at nine months old of a rare brain cancer called ATRT or atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor.
To learn more about how little Francesca's journey captured our hearts from the moment of her birth until she died on Christmas Eve read this dedication written by her dad about "Beans."
"Her many smiles sent a thrill through the world. She was so generous with them, even when most of the smiles back were covered by masks and even when she faced challenges that would scare an adult, like a cancer diagnosis or being born with hearing loss."
And this article on Stat News:
What ‘Beans’ taught her parents about pediatric cancer, the need for research, and patient advocacy
