About This Cause
Our mission at Gracie's Gowns is to provide children that are chronically ill with something fun and personal to wear while staying in the hospital or undergoing therapies and treatments in which they are not able to wear their own clothing. We provide these homemade hospital gowns at no cost to the children and their families at no cost. When a child outgrows, loses or damages their gown and it can no longer be worn, Gracie's Gowns will make the child another gown at no cost to the family. This is our "Grow with Me Gown Request" program. We will also establish a program for the siblings of the children a gown is requested for that recognizes their bravery, love and support of their sibling, but also gives them something of their own...something that makes them feel special as well. This program will be Freckles the Frog and, as soon as, we are able to, this will be a no-cost program for each child that we have made a gown for siblings. For families that have lost a child prior to their gown request being fulfilled, we have created an "Angel Bear Gown" program. Gracie's Gowns will make a gown with the child's name and a pair of angel wings attached to the gown. This gown will then be placed on a stuffed animal (we've used bears and rabbits so far) and mailed to the family. Gracie's Gowns makes personal connections within the surrounding area. This includes delivering their gown in personal, hospital visits, a special care package for the child and their family as funding is available to do so and a willingness to connect them with other services and organizations in the local area that may be able to assist with the needs of the family that Gracie's Gowns cannot. Other fun and supportive services will be provided by Gracie's Gowns as our donations allow, this may include granting a special wish for a child, financial assistance with final expenses (to include medical bills, headstone expenses and memorial/burial costs), gift cards to assist with travel costs to receive treatment. Our focus is and always will be the children that we have and will make a hospital gown for and their families. The trials and burdens the families face with a chronically ill and special needs child is great and we will help reduce some of those burdens where we can
