Show Notes

Summer Germann has a background in Product Development. After her 10 year old brother Mac died from Leukemia in 2002, Summer thought for a long time about how she wanted to honor the memory of her brother. After seeing a friend's daughter who was being treated for cancer wearing a drab hospital gown, Summer decided to use her product development skills to design a new hospital gown, with a much more creative look and one which was more user friendly.

Summer designed her first BRAVE GOWN in 2015, and 7 years later, has distributed these gowns to 500,000 Pediatric Cancer patients, in nearly 380 hospitals , in 6 countries around the world.
