We were thrilled to read this email today from our wig recipient Josie's family who received her custom wig that we ordered for her. This is the joy we strive to create with our program:
"We just love the new wig! It’s so beautiful and Josie is thrilled to have it. She’s headed off to college next week with a fresh new look. This is a huge blessing! Thank you! We have met a lot of very special people on this difficult journey, and you are one of them. Thank you for the work you do. We are grateful to have met up with you & your husband in Grand Rapids. God surely arranged it all in advance and we praise Him for it!"
