We got our very first Sparkle Strong wishlist delivery, and it was exactly what my tired mama heart needed. Inside the box was a stress relief coloring book, a teen journal and a pack of glitter pens. Who doesn’t love a good glitter pen?! They’re going into aSparkle Strong Survival Kit for an older child in the CICU.
This package was was a wish fulfilled by one of our amazing Instagram followers. She doesn’t know the teen who’ll receive this, but she knew it mattered. That’s what this whole thing is about. Teens often get overlooked in hospital life. But they still need comfort, connection and moments that feel like their own. This kit will give one child that kind of moment.
Starting a nonprofit while living full-time in the CICU isn’t exactly the traditional route. But this? This is where it starts. One delivery. One moment of care. One spark.
If you want to help fill the next kit, our wish list is always open.
Thanks for standing with us. We’re just getting started.
