Ever wondered how the Pinky Swear Foundation was created? By this promise right here!🧡💙

Mitch Chepokas was diagnosed with bone cancer at 9 years old. When he overheard another family talking about not having enough money for christmas he took action. He took all of his money out of the bank and donated it to the families on the pediatric oncology floor in orange envelopes signed “Love Mitch. XOXOXO”. Mitch’s father made this promise to him that he would continue their orange envelopes every year after Mitch passed away. They sealed the promise with a Pinky Swear🧡💙

As a Pinky Swear PACK, WE promise to Mitch to continue supporting his mission and to help his parents continue on their son’s legacy of a kind and generous boy.

It is with a very heavy heart that we have to announce as of June 15th the Love Your Melon Campus Crew Program is no longer active for the 2020-2021 school year. Due to COVID-19 restrictions on campuses and in hospitals it was decided that the best option is to postpone all activity. We are extremely grateful for all the memories we have made, the lives we have touched and superhero’s we’ve met. We plan to stay together as an organization and a family just no longer affiliated with . Things are uncertain at the moment but one thing that will not change is our love and passion for our mission🎗🎗🎗
