Emma Donkor is only 12 years old and already understands that kids facing cancer really can be comforted by the little things like new cool socks. See Emma understands that, because she’s fighting cancer herself. She’s facing Neurofibromatosis, and has undergone chemotherapy since she was just 8-years-old. With all her hospital stays, Emma realized how cold the rooms are to prevent germs. It clicked with Emma that for her birthday she wanted everyone to donate silly socks to her that she could then give the hospital for all the kids. Using Facebook, she let her community know that she’s taking donations and so far Emma has collected over 2,300 pairs of socks that have everything from Batman, to minions, to furry fuzzy socks. Once Emma realized all the good she had created? She’s moving on to Play-Doh, and iTunes gift cards to give to the hospital as well!
