GIVING BACK

Stacks that Give Back

Cola Stacks started with the hope of selling one bracelet! When the platform exceeded expectations, it became an opportunity to raise awareness and give back to those in need. This is how Give Back Stacks originated! The initiative started off small and then grew into a monthly occurrence. Here is what we have done so far! We? Yes, we! Cola Stacks would not be able to give back if it weren't for the generosity,  kindness, & support from people like you! 

  • Paws for Elee- $200
    The February 2024 Give Back Bracelet benefited Elee! Unfortunately Elee (2 years old) was experiencing more seizures, and even in the upright position.
