Together Rising
“You see suffering in your community and around the world. You want to help, but don't know where to turn. Turn to Together Rising to transform your heartache into action.”
Sandy Hook Promise
“Sandy Hook Promise’s mission is to create a culture engaged in preventing shootings, violence, and other harmful acts in schools. Sandy Hook Promise is a moderate, above-the-politics organization that supports sensible program and policy solutions that address the “human side” of gun violence by preventing individuals from ever getting to the point of picking up a firearm to hurt themselves or others. Our words, actions, and impact nationwide are intended to honor all victims of gun violence by turning our tragedy into a moment of transformation.”
The Magic Yarn Project
“Chemotherapy treatments leave young scalps too sensitive for traditional wigs, but yarn-wigs are comfy, soft, and warm. Magic yarn wigs are inspired by beloved Disney characters, and invite children back to the world of play and daydreaming. They are a beacon of fun, laughter, and play during a scary time.
Due to the popularity of these wigs, The Magic Yarn Project was born, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
Since our founding, The Magic Yarn Project has received coverage by hundreds of internet media sources, magazines, and local news stations; shipped tens of thousands of wigs to every state and over 50 countries; and organized over 120,000 hours of volunteer service. And the demand for magic grows daily! Every year, roughly 83,000 young girls, ages 2-10, are diagnosed with cancer (including over 5,000 in the US).
Our ever-growing organization is funded solely by donations, and we are entirely volunteer powered.”
