With the help of our wonderful volunteer Master Gardener Lori Smith, we have been tending to our beautiful Angel Memorial Garden at Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan. This special space recognizes our wig recipients who have become angels. Each child leaves an imprint on our hearts forever!❤️

As the summer season is upon us, we're getting ready for the next phase of planting, care & maintenance. To help support our Angel Memorial Garden, please consider making a contribution. Thank you! https://www.wigs4kids.org/angel-memorial-garden.html

Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan was contacted by the Google Developer Student Club at University of Michigan as they support nonprofits in need of technology development through pro-bono services. We are fortunate to work with Superpath, who assist us with our website & digital marketing efforts, so we referred club member Aman Shastry & his team to two other nonprofits who can truly benefit from the work they do. We thank Aman & his club for having the heart to help charities!
