Unleashed Brands Foundation and Partners Bring Joy to Young Leukemia Fighter

Week-Long Trip Highlights Foundation’s Commitment to Supporting Children

June 12, 2024 // Franchising.com // DALLAS - Unleashed Brands Foundation, the charitable affiliate of Unleashed Brands, the leading youth enrichment growth-focused platform, celebrates the success of an unforgettable family trip for Samuel, a brave young leukemia fighter. This heartwarming initiative was made possible by partnering with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). LLS initiated the relationship when the Foundation was launched in October 2023, and the team was introduced to Samuel, an ambassador for LLS with the Dare to Dream Project. The seven-year-old’s adventure underscores the Unleashed Brands Foundation's commitment to positively impacting children and families facing health challenges.

Samuel, his little brother Luke, and his parents spent a week in San Diego, exploring the city’s top attractions with Orbit, the Foundation’s beloved teddy bear mascot. The highlights of their trip included:

"I am incredibly proud of what Unleashed Brands Foundation achieved in partnership with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the San Diego Padres. Providing Samuel and his family with an unforgettable vacation was a testament to our collective efforts and a deeply moving experience for everyone involved,” said Whitney Navarro, Managing Director at Unleashed Brands Foundation. “Seeing Samuel bring smiles and joy to everyone he met throughout the trip was truly inspiring. It was important for us to offer this experience to give Samuel and his family a much-needed break from their challenges and create lasting memories of happiness and togetherness."

“Samuel has such a big heart; he loves baseball and has a goal to go to every Major League Baseball stadium and collect a hat from every team, and his birthday just happens to be in June!” shared an LLS Spokesperson. “Once we learned this, we immediately contacted our incredible partners at Unleashed Brands Foundation, which got Samuel one stadium closer to his goal and created an unforgettable experience for him and his entire family. We are so grateful to Unleashed Brands Foundation for their generosity and for shining light on a family impacted by the darkness of blood cancer.”
