What is the difference between Go Gold and PJammin for Kids with Cancer?

Both of these programs are awareness/ fundraising events for the American Childhood Cancer Organization.

PJammin involves schools and businesses wearing pajamas for a day to show support for children with cancer, who spend a lot of time in their PJ's. It asks for a small donation of $1 per participant. For more information, you can visit

www.pjammin.org

Go Gold leaves things a bit more open-ended, because we realize that there are many great ways to show your support and boost awareness. 

Some people may even choose to combine the two. PJ's and gold ribbons, we like the sound of that!
