Introducing Champion's latest endeavor: an exclusive online emporium designed to unite high school teams, passionate fans, and local community members, all while making a significant impact on the fight against cancer. By collaborating with the esteemed American Cancer Society and NFHS, Champion proudly presents an opportunity to support their invaluable fundraising campaign.
 
Prepare to 'Shop for a Cause' like never before! Our virtual storefront offers an extensive range of athletic essentials, including stylish t-shirts, cozy sweatshirts, functional backpacks, and trendy footwear. Best of all, every single purchase contributes directly to the American Cancer Society, aiding their tireless efforts in advocacy, groundbreaking cancer research, and exceptional patient care.
 
“Champion is proud to be named the Official American Cancer Society Partner for NFHS Fundraising,” said Miranda Hardenburger, General Manager of Champion Teamwear.
 
“As a brand born from sport, we Champion partners who make a difference in people’s lives and communities, both on the field and off.
 
At HanesBrands, our mission is clear: to enhance the lives of 10 million individuals by the year 2030. We believe that in times of uncertainty, a comforting touch can make all the difference. By fostering healthier communities and spreading comfort far and wide, together, we can forge a world that embraces comfort for every body.
 
“The American Cancer Society has a vision of ending cancer as we know it, for everyone,” said Dillon Ardabell, American Cancer Society National Director of College and Youth Engagement. “This will be accomplished by amazing partners such as Champion joining through our partnership with NFHS. We are excited to see the growth in sales and promotions through this partnership in the fight against cancer.”
 
Champion's vision extends far beyond victory on the playing field. We aspire to ignite a flame within students, empowering them not only to triumph but also to become catalysts for change. Our mission is to encourage young minds to embrace their potential as agents of transformation, all while standing hand in hand with the American Cancer Society.
 
“The NFHS is thrilled to team with ACS and Champion to offer this unique opportunity for high schools across the country to join the fight against cancer,” NFHS CEO Dr. Karissa Niehoff said.
