Scotty Sacks

Scott's dream was to give comfort to children going through brain cancer treatment. With the help of our friends, volunteers and myself, we have given life to Scott's dream. We needed a kid friendly logo, Scott loved and raised many squirrels. A well known artist donated his time, he incorporated Scott's features and created a kid friendly squirrel. We then started working with a toy company and Scotty Squirrel was born April 2011. Scotty Squirrel is a brave squirrel he brings along comfort items and things that helps pass the time while going through treatments.

Scott Had A Dream

I think it is very important to show the face of Scotty Sacks. Scott's dream was to give comfort to kids going through brain cancer treatments. The sacks became an idea throughout his treatment. We would pack a small canvas bag of water, snacks and his Nintendo DS w/games, these things were comfort to him. After Scott passed away ,his dream became my drive to give Life to Scotty Sacks. With the instruction of well known artist , Derek Gores, I created the artwork above in a weekend. Scott, Words of encouragement are throughout the artwork.Derek created the Scotty Sack logo combining both squirrel and Scott's features. Without Scott and our friends Scotty Sacks wouldn't be. So many have donated their talents to this wonderful cause and I am very grateful. So thank you to so many.I am excited to see what 2012 brings.
