Comfort With Purpose: How BEDGEAR Supports the American Cancer Society in 2026

At BEDGEAR, "comfort" isn't just how our products feel; it's how our actions show up for people. Our partnership with the American Cancer Society (ACS) goes back years, and it keeps growing. As we head into Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2026, here's what we're doing right now. We'll also show you how we support patients, caregivers, and communities all year long.

October 2026: Give Back While You Shop

From October 1 through October 31, 5% of all pillow sales on BEDGEAR.com will be donated to the American Cancer Society's Breast Cancer Research. Every pillow you buy this month helps fund research that moves us closer to better treatments. You get better sleep, and breast cancer research gets a real boost.

Community Spotlight: Honored at the 2025 Hope Lodge Bash Gala

In May 2025, our Founder/CEO Eugene Alletto was named Honoree at the American Cancer Society's Hope Lodge Bash Gala at the Rainbow Room in NYC (). Our fundraising efforts helped raise nearly $500,000 for the Hope Lodge Jerome L. Greene Family Center. The center gives patients and caregivers free lodging during treatment. It's a cause that's close to our hearts.

Why We Do It

We've partnered with the American Cancer Society for years because their work spans research, advocacy, and patient support. That work directly improves the daily lives of people facing cancer. Our goal is simple: pair personalized comfort with meaningful impact.

How You Can Join Us This October
