I love doing Stampin' Fundraisers. It's a great way for people to socialize while creating something beautiful while supporting a cause. I was introduced to Room for a Child through my friend Emily Chung, owner of AutoNiche. Dawn Gillespie is a woman with a vision. She was a teacher in a difficult area of Toronto and she saw the needs of the children and community. She has started a charity to provide functional bedrooms to impoverished children in the city. I hope she will soon finish her website so you can learn more about her charity but I loved hearing her stories of how she went into homes and through partnering with various organizations, was able to provide a bed and desks and basic room furnishings to children who had none. Imagine what that does to help children succeed at school and as well to their self-esteem!!
Interested in supporting the cause? Come out on June 1st to stamp some pretty cards, buy some raffle tickets and make a difference! RSVP ASAP!
