Brave Barbie and Brave Ken help children better understand their hair loss, and act as friends through treatment and beyond.
“She's bald and beautiful just like our little warrior.”
Courageous Chloe’s Crew
Hair loss is a common side effect of many standard childhood cancer treatments.
Through partnership with Mattel, we're honored to provide Brave Barbie and Ken to pediatric cancer hospitals.
“We are so very grateful to have received these beautiful dolls to give to our patients. Many of us became misty-eyed when we first looked at the dolls because we know of the positive impact they will have on the families we serve.” Intermountain Healthcare
