When Steve joined Saber Offroad, he raised an idea of creating a Blue Soft Shackle to raise money for Autism, and with both of us having kids on the spectrum, we moved immediately towards making it happen.
As the idea built, we wanted to do more than just raise funds for one cause, we wanted more. Welcome to ‘Shackles For A Cause”.
We have three soft shackles, Blue (Autism), Purple (Epilepsy) & Pink (Cancer). All causes close to our hearts. We will be giving 20% of every sale to the following designated charities:
About the PURPLE Shackle Charity
The Brain Foundation is a nationally registered charity dedicated to funding world-class research Australia-wide into neurological disorders, brain disease and brain injuries.
Established in 1970 by neurologists and neurosurgeons, the Brain Foundation funds groundbreaking projects that aim to advance diagnoses, treatment and patient outcomes. The Brain Foundation annually provides research grants to candidates who are selected by eminent neurological practitioners.
About the PINK Shackle Charity
Childhood Cancer Support is a not-for-profit organisation who, for 44 years, has been dedicated to providing families affected by childhood cancer with a place to live that looks and feels like home. Childhood Cancer Support is the oldest children’s cancer charity in Australia and was founded by a dedicated group of parents who realised there was an urgent need to provide a safe and family-focused environment for regional families whilst their child was receiving life-saving cancer treatment in Brisbane at the Queensland Children’s Hospital.
About the BLUE Shackle Charity
Lyrebird College was set up to pursue excellence in the education of young people with an Autism Spectrum Disorder. They deliver an individualised curriculum that recognises every child’s right to be supported in a joyful and caring learning environment that enables them to meet their full potential. Develop and promote good practice amongst professionals and carers in the delivery of the individualised curriculum, and promote an understanding of autism in the wider community.
We are so excited to get these on the market and help these causes in our small way! Please share as widely as you can to raise awareness for ‘Shackles For A Cause’.
Thanks so much!
