Jazwares today unveiled "Stephamos," an exclusive, limited-edition Squishmallows plush toy, created to bring comfort and joy while raising vital funds for the American Cancer Society (ACS).

Launching in October, "Stephamos," a blue and yellow phoenix who spreads warmth, care, and hope, is available for pre-order now online, with 100% of net proceeds benefiting the American Cancer Society's vision to end cancer as we know it, for everyone.

"At Jazwares, we believe in making a meaningful impact in the lives of children and families through play," said Laura Zebersky, President, Jazwares. "With this special Squishmallows, we have the opportunity not only to support the American Cancer Society's critical mission but also bring smiles to patients and their families when they need it most."

Effort to Deliver Comfort Nationwide

In addition to the direct-to-consumer launch, an additional 2,500 "Stephamos" Squishmallows will be donated to American Cancer Society Hope Lodge® communities nationwide, ensuring patients and caregivers receive tangible comfort during treatment journeys.

"Stephamos Squishmallows bring hope, healing, and hugs to families facing cancer. We're grateful to Jazwares for creating 'Stephamos' and helping brighten the days of people facing cancer and their loved ones," said Nickki Reeves, ACS senior vice president for Enterprise Corporate Partnerships & Sports Alliances.
