Make-A-Wish® Fairy

10% of the wholesale proceeds from the sale of the Make-A-Wish® Fairy benefits the Make-A-Wish Foundation, which has enriched the lives of children with life-threatening medical conditions through its wish granting work.

It’s a small world indeed! Although I have supported my local Make-A-Wish chapter for many years, it was a good customer of mine, who introduced me to her cousin, who is the president of our local Make-A-Wish chapter. From that meeting and subsequent friendship, I was able to forge an alliance with the national Make-A-Wish Foundation, and design my first Make-A-Wish Fairy for 2007!

A small world…? Why yes! This past summer, I had the opportunity to have a Make-A-Wish child work in one of my showrooms. She is a successful heart transplant recipient who had just gotten back from a surfing trip in Australia…what a wish for a heart transplant recipient!! It was a great experience for both her and my staff.

With your support, we are on target this year to raise in excess of $10,000 for the national Make-A-Wish Foundation®. Please join me and “share the power of a wish”.

Spirit of Hope Fairy

I know first hand how breast cancer affects women and families…as many of you already know, I lost my mother to breast cancer back in 1989. Since then, I have met many women who have been challenged with this disease. I am amazed at the fortitude of the women afflicted and am encouraged by the enormous progress made in this fight.

In doing my research on organizations dedicated to achieving a cure for breast cancer, I found an excellent example in The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, which was founded by Evelyn Lauder.

I not only loved their mission statement, but was further impressed with their “A” rating from the American Institute of Philanthropy, and the fact that over 89% of every dollar they spend is on breast cancer research and prevention.

10% of the wholesale proceeds from the sale of my Spirit of Hope Fairy benefits The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Through your support & countless others, we have raised over $25,000 for this worthwhile organization, and I look forward to further donations in support of finding a cure in our lifetime.

Healing Heart Fairy

Giving back to the community is a great feeling. Whether you do so individually or as a corporate entity, collectively we can make a difference in our world.

Since 2005, when I introduced my first HEALING HEART FAIRY, 25% of the wholesale proceeds from the sale of this Fairy have benefited designated Children’s Hospitals across the country. Since the inception of this Fairy, and the subsequent new design in 2006, nearly $50,000 has been collectively donated to the designated Children’s Hospitals. I hope that you will not only fall in love with this little fella, but that you also will take him home with you, as a gift or inspiration for you or for someone you love. Your purchase allows more dollars to benefit more children in ways only angels may truly know. The Healing Heart Fairy makes a great gift for a friend or family member who might be ill, a doctor or nurse…or just for you!
