Eli’s Story: Stripes® Stores helps childhood cancer patients be kids

Elijah (Eli) Delgado was diagnosed with leukemia a week after his fifth birthday.

Despite his diagnosis, Eli has taken advantage of all the opportunities MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital offers for kids to be kids including: participating in prom, meeting the Houston Dynamo players, attending camps and more.

Eli is the face of the 2019 Stripes® Stores Celebrates Tomorrow’s campaign, in which Stripes Stores are raising money for MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital. 100% of the funds will go towards helping kids like Eli.

“Thank you Stripes for letting kids be kids,” says Eli’s mother, Leanne.

Visit your local Stripes store from Sept. 3 through Oct. 7 to donate to MD Anderson Children's Cancer Hospital.
