I'm Brooklyn Russell. I love babies.
"I want to be a super hero to give a baby onesie every sick baby." - Brooklyn Russell
Elvis and JJ started with an idea by Brooklyn Russell, a 9 year old, 4th Grader at Earl Warren Elementary School in Sacramento, California. Brooklyn wanted to start her own business to make products for babies. Her first product is a baby onesie with the Characters Elvis and JJ, that are twin birds.
Elvis loves to rap and JJ is very smart in school. Brooklyn has a partnership with The University of California Davis Children's Hospital Child Life and Creative Arts to donate baby onesies.

Where the funds go if we don’t reach our entire goal
All funds received for Children's Hospital: Elvis and JJ Baby Onesie for every Sick Baby will go towards all items mentioned above. We will provide baby onesies for every $15 & $25 donation.
The Impact
Each baby in Children's Hospital will receive a baby onesie. As you know its hard to think that a baby has to be in a hospital because they are ill, but to have a nice soft and cuddly baby onesie to wear during their stay would be a blessing.
The parent who has a child who is sick in the hospital has lots on their mind. If we can alleviate one portion of their expense while they are there in the hospital with their baby, it would be nice.
