The brand new Beanie Giving Machines are Love Your Melon's innovative way to provide an immediate impact for children battling cancer when they need it most. The giving machines feature an interactive screen that will allow children to choose their beanie and read Love Your Melon's recently published children's book, Adventures of the SuperCrew.

In honor of National Superhero Day, the first giving machines will be unveiled on April 26, 2018, in some of the largest children's hospitals across the United States, including Advocate Children's Hospital in Chicago, Florida Children's Hospital, Boston Children's Hospital and the University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital, with more launching in the next month. Love Your Melon's goal is to put a Beanie Giving Machine in every children's hospital. To request a machine in a children's hospital near you, email [email protected].

We look forward to sharing more beanies with children across the world using our new Beanie Giving Machines and continuing to fight cancer through research and family support."
