The Power of Community: Bentley and Lace's Mission to Support Childhood Cancer Awareness
The partnership between Bentley and Lace, Growing Sprouts Photography, and Leia’s Kids and our amazing sponsors - showcases the incredible impact that community and compassion can have.
Together, we're not just lifting spirits—we're also shining a spotlight on childhood cancer and the crucial need to support these courageous children and their families.
Why Childhood Cancer Awareness Matters
Did you know that every single day, 43 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with cancer? That’s right—43 families whose lives are turned upside down in an instant. Despite the advances in medicine, cancer remains the leading cause of death by disease among children under the age of 15. These statistics are heartbreaking, but they also fuel our determination to make a difference.
At Bentley and Lace, we've partnered with @leias_kids, an organization dedicated to supporting children battling cancer and their families. Our goal is to shine a light on these brave young warriors and the challenges they face, and to rally our community around them.
Our recent day with sweet Ariana and her family was a beautiful testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
It wasn't just about having fun—it was a celebration of life, love, and the incredible strength of children fighting cancer. These special moments give us the chance to not only raise awareness but also bring much-needed joy to these courageous kids and their families.
The smiles, laughter, and giggles we shared with Ariana, her sister, and their family created a warm and joyful atmosphere, allowing us to connect with them on a deeper level. Getting to know them personally made the experience even more meaningful, reminding us of the importance of cherishing every moment and the power of togetherness.
A scripture that deeply resonated with me on this special day was:
'Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.' —Joshua 1:9 (NIV)
