More Than Beautiful Clothing: Why Every Little Paralia Purchase Gives Back
At Ardito, we've always believed that children's clothing can be about more than beautiful designs and quality fabrics. It can tell a story, inspire courage, and make a meaningful difference.
That's why we're incredibly proud that a percentage of profits from our Little Paralia Collection helps support the Sporting Chance Cancer Foundation—a charity that is especially close to James and Maria Tedesco's hearts.
A Partnership Built on Purpose
When we partnered with James and Maria Tedesco to create the Little Paralia Collection, we wanted this collaboration to stand for something bigger than fashion.
Inspired by family, courage, and giving back, we chose to support the Sporting Chance Cancer Foundation, with James Tedesco proudly serving as one of the Foundation's Patrons.
Knowing that our collection could help support families facing some of life's toughest challenges made this collaboration even more meaningful.
About Sporting Chance Cancer Foundation
Since 1996, the Sporting Chance Cancer Foundation has been dedicated to supporting children with cancer and their families across Australia.
The Foundation helps fund specialist outreach programs and Clinical Nurse Consultants who provide care to children closer to home. This allows many families—particularly those living in regional Australia—to spend more time together while their child receives treatment, reducing the need for lengthy hospital stays and constant travel.
Over the years, Sporting Chance has:
- Helped thousands of families across Australia.
- Raised millions of dollars to support cancer care programs.
- Funded outreach services that bring vital treatment and support directly to children and families when they need it most.
Why This Matters to Us
As a family-focused brand, we understand how precious childhood is.
Every child deserves comfort, love, and the opportunity to simply be a kid—even during the most difficult circumstances.
While our clothing is designed to create joyful moments for little ones, we're equally passionate about helping families who are facing unimaginable challenges.
By choosing Ardito's Little Paralia Collection, you're becoming part of something bigger than a purchase.
You're helping support an organisation that is making a real difference in the lives of Australian children and their families.
Fashion That Gives Back
Every Little Paralia piece was thoughtfully created with timeless style, premium natural fabrics, and family at its heart.
Now, each purchase also carries an even greater purpose.
Together, we can celebrate childhood, support Australian families, and help give children battling cancer the care and support they deserve.
Thank you for choosing Ardito and for helping us make every purchase count.
