Marlee Hope Pack was diagnosed with an aggressive and rare cancer at the age of 8 on April 15, 2015. She battled for almost four years, always with a smile on her face. When she was granted a Make-A-Wish in Colorado, she used that wish to give to others. She used her Wish to set up a Build-A-Bear workshop at Colorado Children's Hospital so the kids on the Oncology unit could have a bear. She said, "I decided on this wish because I know what it is like to feel bad in the hospital and getting a bear would have made me feel better." We have one mission at Marlee's Smile: Change the Lives of Kids with Cancer, One Smile at a Time. We serve that mission in two ways. The first is to provide a custom Build-A-Bear to every child fighting cancer, as well as their siblings; this is to honor Marlee's giving heart as she knew the comfort a furry friend could bring. The second is to fund targeted research of pediatric cancers, specifically sarcomas; this is to honor Marlee's dying wish that no child should have to suffer the pain and hopelessness of cancer treatments currently available to children.Marlee's Smile is a Texas nonprofit corporation registered with the IRS as a 501(c)(3) organization.
