Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan is saddened to announce the passing of our longtime dear friend & supporter, Cynthia Lynn Van Elslander. Cindy always had the heart to help our program as she loved children and bravely fought cancer for many years. She was the catalyst for our connection to Art Van who furnished our Wellness Center and supported both of our capital campaigns; watching our organization grow & flourish. Cindy will be missed and her legacy lives on in the children we serve -- we are one of the charities of choice she chose for memorial contributions, which can be made here: https://www.wigs4kids.org/how-you-can-help/in-memory-donations.html Our thoughts & prayers remain with her family.
