PACKIT Gives Back

April 21, 2017, Westlake Village, CA- PackIt, known for its top-selling gel-lined, freezable lunch bags, totes and lifestyle products, will be donating 15% of all sales to the Lymphoma & Leukemia society for the month of April. For every bag purchased on packit.com, 15% of proceeds will be given to this foundation to help find a cure for blood cancers. This cause is near and dear to founder Melissa Kieling’s heart, as her brother-in-law was diagnosed with Lymphoma. Today, PackIt celebrates Scott’s recovery as he has been in remission for ten years! 

“After completing 8 rounds of RCHOP chemotherapy treatments and a yearlong battle with Lymphoma, my brother in law, Scott Peterson was given a 50% chance to live beyond 5 years, and told he would likely never be able to have children. Today he celebrates his 10th year in remission with my sister as his wife and their 2 beautiful daughters.” said Melissa Keiling. “I wanted to create a campaign to help support this cause as it has affected my family personally. PackIt is committed to doing everything it can help to find a cure,” she continued.

About PackIt: PackIt is the smartest and simplest way to keep food and drinks cool anywhere. It's a foldable, freezable bag that works just like a refrigerator on the go, continually chilling items for hours. The secret is a special freezable gel built into the walls of the bag. The company’s patented built-in technology keeps items cool for hours without ever needing ice packs. Simply store the entire bag in the freezer overnight. Once the bag is frozen, its walls generate waves of cold air that chill your food and drinks from all sides. It’s so powerful that it can even drop the temperature of liquids 25 degrees within the first hour. For more information visit www.packit.com.
