KEY CHARITY PROJECT EXAMPLES:
We handcraft bright, whimsical pillowcases to help children facing cancer and other life-changing illnesses. These colorful pillowcases provide a touch of home and a visual escape from sterile hospital rooms.
Right across the street, patients undergoing mastectomies face painful recoveries. We design and sew specialized mastectomy pillows to cushion sensitive surgical areas, providing physical relief and a reminder that their community is wrapping them in love.
