Mission of Giving Update

Our Mission of Giving Program that kicks off this August would not be possible without the generous support from The UPS Store and The UPS Foundation. We recently earned a grant for 12,500 dollars that will enable us to complete 12 room makeovers for children with developmental disabilites in San Diego.  It is because of the generous support from this wonderful organization that Cecily's Closet has been able to grow over the last 24 months. 

We are so grateful for the trust they have placed in us to honor our mission and spread hope and love to children with special needs in San Diego.  Working wiith employees from The UPS Store has been such a joy and a blessing!  Pictured here are two of our most hard-working and dedicated volunteers!  Julie B., and Christina H., are always volunteering to take on more and more!  Their leadership skills have enabled us to scale our room makeover program..  They have introduced us to amazing business partners and the families we work with are always quick to credit these two wonderful women for their tireless pursuit for excellence!  (And... they are quite handy with the power tools and leave volunteers like me in awe!)  We're also so grateful for our Cheif Seamstress volunteer, Beverly.  She has sewn more than 295 belly bands! Now that is simply amazing!  One thing is for sure - we would NEVER ship or print with anyone else!

Our Mission of Giving Program kicks off August 8th and thanks to The UPS Store we'll be able to transform eight spaces for eight amazing children over eight days!  Each team will be given $800 dollars that they can bolster if they like to support the needs of the family!  Participating companies include: PaintGreen, Bassett Furniture, Mattress Discounters Direct, Dream Dinners, The UPS Store, Qualcomm, Websense, Maxim Healthcare, Eventful, Inc., and Children's Physician's Medical Group. 

Participating artists include: Inside Emily's Dolton's Head, Grace Ann Piano, Hanna's Murals, Climbing the Wall, Sweet Delisa, Arielle Namenyi, Anna Guillotte and there is room for one more! 

If you are interested in helping, please let us know.  We are seeking professional photographers to capture the reveal of each makeover. 

Thank you The UPS Store! You are helping us make a difference one family at a time!

Onwards and upwards!
