Welcome to my ZigZite!
Thanks for visiting my website, the ZigZite!
I know I'm a little funny-looking, and I realize you've probably never
seen a striped pig before. But I have a very important job!
I am the ambassador for Children's Chance
and an advocate for children with cancer. I visit schools,
businesses, and special events. I can be adopted by businesses, schools,
individuals and community groups. I also have an educational component.
My book, Zig Goes to School is currently being used in schools across
the state to help increase awareness and build empathy for children
facing cancer.

schools have adopted me!
Come back to visit often to find out where I am
and what I’m doing!
