Charlotte’s Wings donated 100 Halloween-themed childrens books to The Rainbow Connection to support them in their work of granting wishes to Michigan children with life-threatening or terminal illnesses.
Charlotte’s Wings is a non-profit organization based in Rochester which was founded in March 2008. It was founded in memory of a local infant girl, Charlotte,
who died at just 5 months old of a rare degenerative brain disease. In lieu of baptism gifts, her parents made a large donation of books to the pediatric unit at Beaumont
Hospital, Royal Oak. Charlotte’s Wings was founded to continue and expand this initiative – donating books to children in hospital and hospice care throughout Michigan.
To date they have donated over 11,000 to Michigan hospitals and hospices. Through this endeavor, they aim to provide hope and smiles during traumatic times.
