Love Your Melon’s Superhero Visits with Custom Light Up T-Shirts
We had the privilege of working with Love Your Melon, a Minnesota-based non-profit founded by college students with a mission to bring hope and joy to children battling cancer.
As part of their superhero hospital visits, the team created custom light up T-shirts with Flashion Statement, bringing smiles, light, and a little magic to some very brave kids.
Custom LED T-Shirts for Love Your Melon’s Superhero Visits
Through its original buy-one, give-one model, Love Your Melon has donated over 45,000 hats to children fighting cancer across the U.S.—hand-delivered by their dedicated college ambassadors dressed as superheroes.
To make those visits even more memorable, Love Your Melon partnered with Flashion Statement to create custom LED T-shirts that light up as part of their vibrant costumes. These glowing shirts helped turn hospital hallways into a stage for joy, offering therapeutic entertainment and a bright distraction from the difficult treatments the children face daily.
More than just apparel, the light-up gear became part of a powerful moment of connection—sparking smiles, laughter, and a little sense of wonder in hospital rooms around the country.
FAQs
How do the light up T-shirts work?
Our light up shirts use electroluminescent (EL) panels attached to the clothing. They’re powered by a small battery pack that can be hidden discreetly and controlled with various lighting modes (steady on, blinking, or sound-activated)
Can I customize the design on the shirt?
Yes! We can print your custom artwork, logos, or superhero emblems and integrate the lighting directly into the design for a truly one-of-a-kind piece.
Are the shirts safe and comfortable for kids to wear?
Definitely. We use soft, breathable cotton and ensure the lighting components are lightweight and flexible. Safety and comfort are top priorities, especially for use in sensitive settings like hospitals.
Can you make shirts in bulk for a team or event?
Absolutely! We offer bulk pricing and can work with organizations, brands, and nonprofits for events, activations, or charitable campaigns—just like we did with Love Your Melon.
