Updated: Mar 18, 2023

Thank you News12 for joining my event and helping to spread awareness to the PoshPillowProject. It was such a great turnout and all of the participants ere amazing!



One, North Jersey, high school, senior is spreading more than awareness


for breast cancer awareness month. She's also spreading knowledge


teaching others how to make a pillow that brings breast cancer patients


comfort in the car are Marcy Rubin reports.


18 year old, Charlotte Abrams, has a passion for pillows.


The Bergen County teen created, the Posh pillow project


to help breast cancer patients after surgery.


POSH stands for Post-op Supportive Hug and then pillow.


They are sewn for patients who are recovering from mastectomy


or reconstructive or other breast cancer related surgeries.


It provides Comfort to patients when traveling in the car


and now she's teaching others how to make them at classes


like this one at the Englewood library.


Both in person and virtually for those of you online. Charlotte came up with the idea at


just 14 after a loved one had a mastectomy and felt discomfort while driving in a car.


After seeing how that really benefited her I wanted to make them accessible


to us Many people as possible. The POSH pillow comes with armholes and sits between


the surgical site and a seatbelt in a car. It's meant to provide support and comfort in more


ways than one, we're not just making them we're filling them with love and that, that is what


that hug is. It's just spreading that love to as many people as possible", the classes and her


website, which has a downloadable template help, others, learn


to make the pillows.


Truly when I say this, every single Posh pillow is made with so much love
