Our organization has come a long way since its inception, and we’re proud of the strides we’ve made in:
Advocacy We’ve worked tirelessly to raise awareness about cervical cancer, its prevention, and the importance of screening and vaccination. Our advocacy efforts have helped shape policies and programs that support cervical cancer prevention and treatment. (Photo: Cervical Cancer Day on the Hill)
Education We’ve developed and disseminated educational resources, including retreats, webinars, and online and printed materials, to empower individuals with knowledge about cervical cancer, its risks, and its management. (Photo: Cervivor School 2023, Seattle, WA)
Community-Building We’ve created a supportive community of cervical cancer patients, survivors, and their loved ones, providing a safe space for sharing experiences, asking questions, and finding comfort in the company of others who understand the journey.

Cervivor’s following holiday shopping guide offers a mix of splurges and affordable stocking stuffers, perfect for treating fellow Cervivors, caregivers, and healthcare heroes, or for sharing with loved ones who want to support your cervical cancer journey. Not shopping for others? Simply forward this list to your gift-givers to help them find the perfect items from your wish list!
Shop with purpose this year. Together, we can make a difference – one gift at a time.
Celebrate the power of support with our new hoodie ($50), long-sleeve T-shirt ($30), and short-sleeve T-shirt ($25) in gray, white, or black. These items honor the “Cervivor aunties” who uplift cervical cancer patients, survivors, and their “Cervivor babies,” often born after challenging fertility journeys. Proceeds benefit the Virginia “Ginny” Marable Cervivor Baby Gift Fund.
Hung above the chimney with care, these festive stockings in the cause’s signature teal and white bring holiday cheer while spreading awareness about cervical cancer and our unique Cervivor community. Also, they’re cute! Pre-order a large stocking ($25) or a mini stocking ($15) or get a few.
One of our favorite cancer-friendly brands, KickIt Pajamas was co-founded by one of our dedicated Cervivor Ambassadors. With a wide range of thoughtfully designed items – including recovery pajamas (shown in sage green, $105), hospital gowns, capes, cardigans, and eye masks – we suggest giving a gift card so your recipient can pick what they need. In amounts from $50 to $200, it’ll fit any budget.
Journaling can be a lifeline for processing emotions, managing stress, or practicing mindfulness. This spacious, lined journal ($20) is ideal for navigating the challenges of cervical cancer, reflecting on daily experiences, or keeping track of your advocacy work.
With a groovy Cervivor logo, this soft, tunic-style top ($30) pairs perfectly with jeans or leggings. Use it as a conversation starter when someone asks about the word on your shirt. Tell them it’s more than a name, it’s a community with a mission!
Bring a touch of summer to winter days with this lightweight, easy-clean bag with a drawstring top ($50). Roomy and with a stylish striped pattern, it has handy side pockets for water bottles, phones, and whatever else you need to stash. Pre-order the bag now to ensure it arrives in time for your festive day.
When your post-cancer future is so bright, you have to wear shades, reach for these chic ombré teal sunglasses ($10) that make a statement: End Cervical Cancer.
Wear your teal and white with pride and in cozy comfort with this adorable knitted scarf ($40), beanie ($25), and set of gloves ($15). Nab all three for $70. Another pre-order item. Don’t delay and miss out!
If you haven’t read this powerful tome ($14.95) by Cervivor founder Tamika Felder, now’s the time. It’s a motivational guide that encourages resilience and action. Give it to someone who could use a pick-me-up and sense of purpose.
Made of thermo-regulating fibers and with breathable layers, these Cervivor-y compression socks ($20) will keep your feet dry and funk-free. They help improve blood circulation and speed up muscle recovery in your calves, feet, and ankles. Pull them on before travel, exercise, or long workdays.
We love shirts, squads, and gear celebrating our Cervivor Squad — and this hoodie ($45) is a standout! With a clever two-in-one design, it folds into a convenient backpack, so you won’t need to tie it around your waist or shoulders. Well-made in a soft sage green, you’ll get some use out of this one!
Show your survivorship with this Cervivor-customized cervical cancer ribbon lapel pin ($4). Pin it on your shirt, jacket, or bag, or purchase a few to give to special caregivers this holiday season.
