I Feel the Love Project- Nov/Dec 2014

It is already that time of the year again, time to start collecting holiday cards for kids that will be spending time in the hospital during the holidays! In the past, this has been one of the biggest collections and we cannot wait to get lots and lots of cards to send to these special kids :)  We like to spread the love all over the country and this holiday season we are honoring a fabulous children's hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee.  

November/December 2014 I Feel the Love Project

From Children's Hospital at Erlanger:
"Children's Hospital at Erlanger is the sort of full-service facility usually found only in very large cities. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is designated Level III by the state, providing the very highest level of care for premature or sick newborns. The Pediatric Trauma Team, Emergency Department and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit provide immediate, 24-hour-a-day care for critically ill or injured children. 

Erlanger LifeForce Air Ambulance and the Neonatal/Pediatric Ground Transport make the services of Children's Hospital quickly accessible to pediatric patients throughout our region. No other facility in our region offers these services."

Feeling the Love for Lily- September 2014

We at the I Feel the Love Project sincerely hope that you have been enjoying your summer!  We cannot believe that September is here.  A big thank you to everyone who has been supporting the I Feel the Love Project month after month.

This month we would like to honor a young girl who is battling ALL Leukemia.  Her name is Lily and here is her story:


On June 17th 2014 while visiting her father, Lily was diagnosed with ALL Leukemia.  Lily started chemotherapy June 18th and has had her mother and grandmother by her side the entire time.  She has received tons of love and support from her family and friends, but is already tired of being poked and measured. 

Lily's main interests/likes include: Disney, the color purple, glitter and art, and Monster High. 

Please join us as we create handcrafted cards for this amazing little girl. We would like to create signed cards of support, as well as cards that say thinking of you or anything that suggests love and encouragement.  Please consider joining us this month!

I Feel the Love Project- August 2014

You might not know this, but September is National Grandparents month.  We thought it would be a terrific idea to honor seniors during this month by selecting an assisted living facility as our August I Feel The Love Project cards recipient.  We will collect cards in August to send out in September just in time for National Grandparent's Day!


Wynwood of McMinnville provides Personalized Assisted Living and Alzheimer’s Care options for seniors.  Personalized service plans are reviewed regularly by staff to ensure that they meet the changing needs of their residents. Their trained staff is there to assist with personal needs – bathing or showering, selection of clothing, dressing assistance, grooming, hygiene, mobility and transferring and dining assistance – 24 hours a day. 

Integral to life at Wynwood are the programs, outings and opportunities they offer to their residents. Their philosophy is to incorporate not only resident’s individual interests, but opportunities that allow them to make meaningful contributions to each other and the community on a regular basis.

Please join us as we create handcrafted cards for the amazing elderly people who utilize this facility. We would like to create signed cards of support, as well as cards that say thinking of you or anything that suggests love and encouragement.  Please consider joining us this month!

I Feel the Love Project- May 2014

Welcome to Funky Cards

Our recipients continue to want to pay it forward, so the I Feel the Love Project would like to shine a light this month on a sweet little girl that Maddy (March 2014) and her family met while undergoing treatment in the hospital. 


Please join us as we create handcrafted cards for Violet and her family, the May 2014 I Feel the Love Project card recipients. Maddy's mother shared that this family can really use our love and support right now.  Please consider joining us this month!
  

In June of 2013, Violet was diagnosed with infant leukemia (acute lymphoblastic leukemia) when she was just 10 months old. She is an amazing little girl who is the youngest of three other siblings. She loves making silly faces with her brothers and sister, playing peekaboo, and chowing down on delicious bread products! 

Violet is currently receiving chemotherapy and blood transfusions at a local hospital. She has already had two surgeries to prepare her for her treatments. Her family lives an hour away from the hospital. When her at-home care begins, they will still return to the hospital for treatment throughout the month. Her prognosis is promising, but she and her family have a long road ahead of them that will last at least two years.

We will be collecting cards for Violet, but if you would like to include a card for her parents that would be great! The cards can be signed and it is always fun to include where you are from in your card.










I Feel the Love Project- April 2014

Big Smiles from Maddy!

Maddy was one happy girl when we went to  visit her to bring her the gifts you all made.  Her smile just lights up the room doesn't it?  She couldn't wait to open the cards and have her mom read them to her!

Beautiful piece of art!

Love the flowers!

 Adorable finger puppets!

Cards for Maddy!

And more cards!

Thank you again to everyone who contributed to this project.  Maddy was so grateful that she wants to make cards for the at-risk children from Tennyson Center for Children, this month's recipients.  Join Maddy in creating birthday or thinking of you cards for the kids.  All you have to do is:

I Feel the Love Project - April 2014


Because April is National Child Abuse Prevention month, the I Feel the Love Project would like to shine a light this month on a fabulous nonprofit center that works with abused, neglected, and at-risk children.  Please join us as we create handcrafted cards for Tennyson Center for Children, the April 2014 I Feel the Love Project card recipient.

"At Tennyson Center for Children kids suffering from abuse, neglect, emotional crises and other traumatic experiences will get the help they need while finding healing and HOPE in a safe and caring environment. Our varied programs build trust, offer support, encourage loving, caring, healthy relationships, and teach kids just how precious they are." (taken from the Tennyson Center for Children home page).

Programs at Tennyson Center for Children include: Residential Treatment, Day Treatment, Education Programs, Community-Based and Special Home-Based Services, Outpatient Therapy, and other programs.  

We will be collecting birthday cards for the children.  In addition, we are looking for cards that could be given out when a child, or even a staff member, is having a difficult day (cheer up theme).  The center can keep all these cards on hand to hand out at the appropriate time.  Our hope is to shower this center with lots of cards that they can give out to the amazing young people they work with.
