Ryan’s Case for Smiles (formerly known as ConKerr Cancer) is an organization dedicated to helping sick children cope with the stress of life changing illnesses and injuries. We provide children with whimsical pillowcases that give them an emotional boost and hope that enhances the emotional well-being of the children and their families. We also recently partnered with experts at the Center for Pediatric Traumatic Stress to provide valuable resources to families. With every pillowcase, we get one step closer to our goal of helping kids with life changing illnesses or injuries, feel better to heal better.

Company Overview: 
Cindy Kerr began sewing pillowcases for her son Ryan more than a decade ago to put a smile on his face during his cancer treatment.  Seeing how happy they made Ryan, Cindy began to sew pillowcases for all the children on his hospital floor and it has since grown into an international movement.  Since then, Case For Smiles has grown into has grown into more than 120 chapters throughout North America with thousands of amazing volunteers.
