The children we support at Wigs 4 Kids are our heroes and every day they inspire us by their strength and courage. Founder & CEO Maggie Varney was deeply touched when she received a copy of an essay written by Carleigh, one of our recipients. Carleigh chose Wigs 4 Kids as her charity to write about since it had such an impact on her life, and acknowledged Maggie as her "Michigan Hero" - read the essay here: http://www.wigs4kids.org/cm/dpl/downloads/content/70/michigan_hero-mrs.maggie.pdf
