CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 1, 2026--

Chilipad, the sleep technology company behind the water-based Chilipad 2.0 cooling system, is committing $50,000 worth of its sleep technology to men and women affected by breast cancer through a new year-long partnership with National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Sleep changes everything during breast cancer treatment and both organizations share the goal of improving quality of life for those affected by breast cancer. By combining product donations with fundraising from the pink rings, Chilipad hopes to bring meaningful comfort to people on their journey while helping NBCF expand access to critical resources like early detection, patient navigation and education.

As part of the initiative, Chilipad is partnering with Charlotte creator and breast cancer survivor Katy Harrel, whose own experience with triple-negative breast cancer transformed her into an advocate for early detection and patient support. Through social storytelling during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Harrel will help shine a light on the partnership while encouraging her community to give back and support women affected by breast cancer.

"Sleep is one of the first things breast cancer treatment can disrupt, but it's also one of the most important parts of recovery," said Robbie Falls, Chief Product & Marketing Officer at Chilipad. "At Chilipad, we've spent years helping people sleep better through temperature regulation. Partnering with NBCF gives us the opportunity to put that technology where it can make a real difference by helping women find greater comfort and a sense of control when they need it most."

“We’re excited to partner with Chilipad. Sleep can be challenging during breast cancer treatment, particularly for patients experiencing hot flashes and night sweats,” said Douglas Feil, Chief Program Officer at National Breast Cancer Foundation. “Research shows that body temperature plays an important role in sleep, and a cooler sleep environment may support better, more restorative rest. Our mission at NBCF is to help now and this partnership will offer patients comfort at a time when quality sleep is most important.”

Pink remote rings are limited edition and will be available while supplies last. Rest easy. Give boldly. To purchase a pink remote ring or make an additional donation in support of NBCF's mission, visit sleep.me or donate online here.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Thursday agreed to review a Trump administration policy denying bond hearings for immigrants as the government carries out a sweeping crackdown.

The justices will consider whether immigrants who have been living in the U.S. have a right to a hearing to determine if they should remain detained while challenging their possible deportation.

Most appeals courts to have considered the issue have found that it violates federal law to detain immigrants, including those living in the U.S. illegally, without a bond hearing.

Those decisions conflict with rulings by the 5th and 8th circuits, which held that immigrants accused of illegally entering and remaining in the U.S. must be detained while their deportation cases are pending.

Attorneys from President Donald Trump’s administration argue the circuits’ split is “disrupting the orderly administration of immigration law.” They say the nation’s courts have been inundated with thousands of petitions filed by immigrants challenging the government’s legal interpretation.

“The result is an unworkable patchwork of inconsistent immigration enforcement, where aliens present without admission are subject to mandatory detention in some circuits but are entitled to bond hearings and often released in others,” lawyers for the Republican administration wrote.

The plaintiffs are immigrants represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, which says hundreds of district court judges have joined most circuits in rejecting the Trump administration’s new reading of the statutes. Plaintiffs’ lawyers say the administration is trying to deny bond hearings for immigrants apprehended anywhere in the U.S. — no matter how long they’ve lived in the country — rather than limiting the restriction to noncitizens stopped at the border.

“Millions of noncitizens could be affected by the government’s new interpretation,” ACLU attorneys wrote.

The Trump administration says its new mandatory detention policy is legal under a 1996 immigration law. The policy change departs from the practices of prior administrations, which typically allowed most noncitizens without criminal records to request a bond hearing if they were arrested away from the border.
