ANDOVER, Mass., Sept. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — For the eighth year in a row, Nurse Mates is proud to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® in its mission to cure childhood cancer. Through community events, fundraising campaigns, and proceeds from its special limited-edition merchandise, the footwear and accessories company has raised more than $145,000 for St. Jude since 2016.
“St. Jude and its extraordinary, life-changing work hold a special place in our hearts, and this year we’re making it easier than ever for everyone to get involved and make a difference,” says Nurse Mates Vice President Lynne Dejadon. “Customers who shop our website for essential footwear and compression socks during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month can help out simply by making a purchase! For every full-priced pair of men’s or women’s shoes sold on NurseMates.com this September, we will donate $5 to St. Jude, and for every full-priced pair of compression socks sold, we’ll donate $1.”
Last year the company released a very special compression sock design featuring art created by St. Jude patients, as well as a limited-edition color of the Align™ Torri shoe, popular items from which a portion of the proceeds, a total of $9,328, was donated to St. Jude.
Nurse Mates employees, their friends, and family members will also be participating in the St. Jude Walk/Run on the Boston Common on Sept. 23. Their team motto is: “Take Care. Take Heart. Take Part.” and they’ve set this year’s goal at $10,000 – double the amount raised in last year’s walk. Contributions are welcome at any time.
