According to the latest data of the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the specialized cancer agency of the World Health Organization, the global numbers on childhood cancer increased over the last decades, with almost 300,000 new cases in 2016 – that's 820 new cases per day, being Leukemia the most common in children aged 15 years or less.

If we look at childhood cancer cases in the US, numbers are still shocking. Each year more than 15,000 children and young adults are diagnosed with any form of cancer.

Childhood cancer causes are still very unclear, however, it is known that it cannot be treated exactly the same as adult cancer. Current treatments are toxic to the children and often affect their development, this is why it is very important to study what causes childhood cancer to research for specialized treatments that will be less aggressive to kids.

There are many foundations across the States that put all their effort to raise funds to support pediatric oncology researchers and fund their investigations, as well as to help the kids and their families affected.

It is within this context that LANGRIA has teamed up with Children's Cancer Research Fund – a foundation that was born in Minnesota in 1979, and that has ever since, supported and funded the brightest and boldest minds in the field of pediatric oncology, in order to donate one of their best-selling items, the Glittering Flannel Mermaid Tail Blanket to the children battling cancer at the Minnesota Hospital.

Under the hashtag #LANGRIA4KIDS, the campaign's goal is to communicate one strong message: "PLAYFULNESS AND SMILES SHOULD NEVER BE TAKEN AWAY FROM CHILDREN".

The brand invites people to join the donation campaign and collaborate to give back during this festive season so that kids can receive these blankets for Christmas. For every customer in the US purchasing 2 or more blankets until the campaign ends (December 12th), LANGRIA will donate one to every children up to a total of 50 blankets. Through this campaign, LANGRIA wants to remind people in The US, as well as worldwide, that we still have a long way to go to beat childhood cancer, and we should not give up. They want to make a difference for kids battling cancer this Christmas, and they invite people to be a part of it too.

Starting from only 19 USD for all adventure and comfort seekers.

Shenzhen, Guangdong -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/25/2017 -- LANGRIA launches its latest innovation, the Astronaut Memory Foam Travel Pillow. According to their Indiegogo campaign, this pillow for travelers comes with a detachable hood. Developed under the strict quality standards of the company, the neck pillow puts together 3 key components that will ensure the greatest experience: comfort, versatility, and portability.

"When looking at people wearing neck pillows on planes, it is easy to find compact but non-supportive designs, or ergonomic pillows that are too big to carry", said Josh, one of the engineers who came up with the design of the Astronaut Travel Pillow "We wanted to create the absolute pillow that has it all, a reasonable small size, great ergonomics and customizable for all necks".

Design and durability
At first glance, the pillow has an eye-catchy shape. According to LANGRIA, the Astronaut Travel Pillow gets its name for its resemblance to the upper part of astronaut suits.

It has a U-shape with a long pillow section for extra support and a hood to improve sleep quality. The pillow is made of a premium viscoelastic material, which not only holds the head, chin, and neck, but it also reduces allergens and has a long lifespan. The blue and grey outer cover of the pillow and the hood is made of eyelet fabric, which is skin-friendly, breathable and machine washable. The finishing touch comes with the adjustable nylon strap, which allows to enlarge or narrow the neck dimensions to fit every user.

Versatility & portability
The Astronaut Travel Pillow is designed to be used in 6 different ways to fit daily situations at work, at home, on the outdoors and when traveling. All the positions provide support for the neck, chin, head, and lumbar area. Place the pillow around the neck for basic head and neck support, upside-down for extra head support, on the side to lean against walls or windows, in the car seat headrest when driving, on the lower back when sitting on a chair to provide lumbar support, or fold it in the shape of a wedge pillow to rest your head on its soft surface.

In terms of portability, the Astronaut pillow comes with a matching pouch to reduce its original volume to a more travel-friendly one. Once on the pouch, attach it to the outside of the backpack, or put it inside a canvas for easy transportation.
