Twist Out Cancer was founded in 2011, by Jenna Benn Shersher, a Grey Zone Lymphoma Survivor. TOC provides emotional support to cancer survivors and their loved ones through creative arts programming. This global community encourages anyone touched by cancer to connect, create, support, inspire and heal. Jenna recently moved Twist Out Cancer’s headquarters from Chicago to WeWork in Northern Liberties.
PiperWai was founded by Jessica Edelstein and Sarah Ribner in 2015. Piperwai is a charcoal cream deodorant that works naturally to absorb wetness and fight odor. As recent winners of Shark Tank, PiperWai has grown exponentially in the last few months. Guided by their desire to give back to the community, PiperWai is generously donating 10% of all proceeds raised during the month of October to Twist Out Cancer. Use the code TOC10 to purchase your very own PiperWai deodorant.

So what does a deodorant company and a cancer-focused nonprofit have in common? A lot actually. Cancer survivors are often concerned about what types of products they are putting on their bodies before, during and after treatment. A natural deodorant free of toxins and chemicals, allows them to feel safe and confident throughout their journey with cancer.
The partnership between Twist Out Cancer and PiperWai happened because of WeWork. Working in such close proximity to one another, has allowed the driven, passionate founders to connect, and think outside of the box for new innovative ways to make an impact on the community.
Twist Out Cancer and PiperWai is a natural partnership.

We invite you to become a #GivingTuesday Ambassador and help get out and give this November 29th.
