Cleveland Clinic Children’s Sweatshirt – Sam

100% of the proceeds from this shirt will be donated to the Art & Music Therapy Programs at Cleveland Clinic Children’s.

This year’s shirt was inspired by the fun and colorful artwork of Samantha, a fourteen-year-old girl who was born with Alagille syndrome, a rare disorder which affects multiple organ systems. She’s known and loved by her Cleveland Clinic Children’s family for her creativity, resilience, and insistence that the medical team sing her “Happy Birthday” every time they arrive for bedside rounds. In foster care since infancy, Sam’s dream came true this year when she was adopted into a loving family. Her adoptive mother explained, “She’s given us so much more than I could ever give her.”

Cleveland Clinic Children’s Art and Music Therapy Programs help kids like Samantha adjust to their illness and treatment and express themselves.
