DECEMBER SERVICE PROJECT

Queen for a Day is one of our newest non-profit organizations we support here at Scrapnesia. Queen for a day gives pediatric cancer patients a reason to be a kid again. They host tea parties for girls to be pampered with makeovers, manicures, and their very own coronation ceremony. Each patient receives a real tiara donated by beauty queens across the nation! When a child smiles in the mirror after her makeover and laughs, she has defeated her illness. The Queen for a Day crown symbolizes victory as she is a champion over her illness. For the boys, they encourage the qualities of bravery and courage through the Heroes program based on firefighters and police officers.

Queen for a Day needs our help in the following 2 ways:
  • They have a scrapbook of all their events that they use to show the parents of the patients what the organization provides for the children. They also use this scrapbook to show at fundraising events. I have several envelopes of pictures here at Scrapnesia that need to be scrapbooked. Please come by the store anytime this month and donate the use of your time to scrapbook their pages for them. Any supplies purchased to make their pages may be purchased at a 25% discount.
  • The organization also does not have very many supplies for scrapbooking. I am collecting supplies for them. We all have old paper, stickers, tools, etc. that we purchased and now think "What was I thinking?" or "I bought this twice before." You can drop off anything you care to donate to this cause here at Scrapnesia.
