The fourth annual “Be the Sunshine” campaign is a summer-long initiative in partnership with CVS Pharmacy, designed to support disability services for over 25,000 individuals in Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, Imperial, Kern, San Bernardino, Riverside and Ventura counties all summer long!
Each month, designated products are featured at participating CVS locations, with a portion of proceeds donated to Easterseals Disability Services.
Purchase Bodyarmor in July
Thanks to our partner, Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Easterseals Southern California will receive a $1 donation for every purchase of two Bodyarmor 28oz drinks for $5, or two Bodyarmor Sport Water 1L bottles for $4—up to a total of $5,000 throughout the month of July.
The Impact of our "Be The Sunshine" Campaign
According to the CDC, 28.7% of U.S. residents, more than 70 million people across the country, have a disability. Of those, 23% live in California (more than 9 million), nearly 5.5 million of them in SoCal. One in 31 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), with 1 in 26 kids in California diagnosed. Easterseals is SoCal’s largest provider of autism services.
