Jel Sert Charities

THE JEL SERT COMMITMENT... BECAUSE PARTNERING WITH CAUSES IS IMPORTANT TO YOU!

American Childhood Cancer Organization (ACCO) began in 1970 by a group of parents whose children had been diagnosed with cancer. They came together to lobby for more research, and to support each other through the diagnosis and treatment of this life threatening disease at a time when very few children survived. Today, ACCO is one of the largest grassroots, national organizations dedicated to improving the lives of children and adolescents with cancer and their families. We are proud to be associated with the ACCO and the fight against childhood cancer. Our efforts focus on promoting awareness and supporting advocacy programs.

Cancer ribbon Fla-Vor-Ice Otter Pops Pop-Ice

Childhood cancer is the #1 cause of death by disease of America’s children and each year there are approximately 12,600 children who are diagnosed with cancer in the U.S. In 2008, we began adding the gold ribbon and ACCO information to our Fla-Vor-Ice freezer pops packaging in support of the Gold Ribbons for Childhood Cancer Awareness cause. This campaign now extends across millions of packages of Fla-Vor-Ice, Otter Pops and Pop-Ice, inspiring childhood cancer advocacy and honoring those affected by the disease.
In addition to this program we are active both on-line through social media and off-line at local events to provide support and keep people informed. We hope that through our efforts more people will become aware of our partnership with the ACCO, the resources this organization provides and the need to be actively involved so that we can end childhood cancer.

Since 1995, The National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) has been raising awareness, providing education and dispelling myths about this serious disease. Too often, symptoms go unrecognized and ovarian cancer is detected too late.

Jel Sert is proud to support the fight against ovarian cancer through knowledge and awareness. Our support is in honor of those within our global community who have been affected by ovarian cancer – the survivors, patients, caregivers and the loved ones – yours and ours. Help break the silence... Talk about Ovarian Cancer.

Look for the NOCC logo and contact information on every package of Wyler's Light products.

GET INFORMED. GET INVOLVED.

The NOCC continues to expand awareness and education campaigns, and initiates new projects through the generous support of corporations, foundations and individuals.

Freezer Donation Program... Take a Pop, Share a Smile

Children with cancer face many challenges in their lives, one of them being the side effects of the invasive therapies used to treat the disease. To help kids through these post treatment periods, freezer pops are often used to help ease the pain of mouth sores and other negative side effects from the cancer therapy while helping keep the children hydrated. We saw an opportunity to make an immediate impact on the lives of these brave children by providing freezer pops when they need them the most.

In 2010, we started the Take a Pop, Share a Smile program where we will be donating freezers and freezer pops to childhood cancer centers across the U.S. The first freezer was presented to University of Chicago's Comer Children's Hospital to start the program and we plan to donate many more in the years to come.
