Customers can purchase two plush toys—Blake the bear and Bentley the puppy—at KAY and Jared stores nationwide for $14.99 each. As part of the Thanks and Giving campaign, a minimum of $7 per plush will be donated to St. Jude through February 1, 2025.
Over the past 26 years, Signet has raised over $100 million to help children battling cancer and other serious illnesses. Other Signet brands, including Zales and Banter by Piercing Pagoda, offer customers the option to donate at checkout during the holiday season and support St. Jude through year-round initiatives.
Richard C. Shadyac Jr., President and CEO of ALSAC, St. Jude's fundraising arm, noted that Signet's contributions help provide critical care to patients and advance research efforts to find cures for childhood cancer.
The release noted that in October 2023, Signet pledged an additional $100 million to St. Jude, aimed at improving survivorship rates, particularly in regions with lower outcomes.
The company raised a record $8.75 million in 2023, its largest single-year donation to St. Jude.
