Something a little different...

Hello,

I really debated on making this post because this blog is really about crafting, but after I thought about it more (and talked with my fellow Bloggers) it's really about what we love. We love crafting, but we love so much more than just that. Our family and friends are a big part of why we make cards and crafts, we do it to make them happy.

Right now a friend of the 3Chick family has been handed a heavy hand; their amazing son, Maddux, has been diagnosed with cancer. You can visit GiveForward.com to see the full story on how they discovered that this brave 6 year old boy has Sarcoma.

He has been giving a fantastic battle, but there is always the unfortunate matter of how to finance such an endeavor. So many people have been coming up with great ideas on how to help this family raise money so that their only worry will be who gets to read Maddux a story at bed time. There is still a long road ahead and there will be more bills, but we're all confident that they will get taken care of.

The reason for this post is to try and help raise some money for the Hescock family. While working with someone from the Etsy website, we created some inexpensive but very nice quality window decals that boast the hashtag of our pride for this boy. #TeamMaddux shows that we're standing behind Maddux in his fight, no matter where we live. 

For $5 (plus shipping), we can send you the 2" x 7" water and weatherproof window decal displayed in the picture below. (To be clear, these are not clings and these are not stickers. They are decals which are more permanent and meant to be used on glass. With effort, however, they could be removed if that was something you wanted to do.)  

After sending your e-mail and shipping information to teammadduxfundraiser@gmail.com you will be sent a secured invoice via PayPal. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me (Joyce) at the e-mail I just mentioned. 

100% of the money made from this fundraiser will go to the Hescock family. I know it won't bring a ton of money, but every little bit helps. You can also forward this information on via Instagram if you search the username: teammadduxfundraiser

Even if all you do is visit the GiveForaward website and send a hug or a donation there, we'll all be grateful for your time and consideration. We hope all are well in your lives!

Sincerely from the 3Chicks,

Joyce, Hannah & Marisol
