“My favorite tool to help deal with stress was my blanket. It helped me remember that someone cares about me and my family, and that I shouldn't be afraid.”

Robyn Lawrence, a former client, completed her Girl Scout Gold Award by creating a blanket donation program for Wonders & Worries. And you can help!

Season For Caring

This year we nominated Ashley McGill and her two children, Alyanna (10) and Preston (6) for the Season for Caring Campaign. Ashley suffers from neurological disorders which cause debilitating headaches and render her unable to work. Through the Campaign, Ashley and her children were invited to light the Driskill Christmas Tree, and she received an adjustable Tempur-Pedic bed so she doesn’t have to sleep in a chair. Your generosity keeps families like Ashley’s physically and mentally supported.
