The Sun Catcher with a philanthropic life of it's own! The original purchase, from Shanga (a self-sustaining project employing people with physical challenges, to create beautiful art), supports those folks.
Educating Tanzania Foundation (they have around 80 sponsored scholars) raffled it, and all the money went to support their students. I won! So now we are raffling it, and it all the proceeds will go to provide meals for our 50 StepByStep Daycare Kiddos!!

Betty donates a quilt every year for us to raffle. We were trying to figure out how many meals snacks she has provided to our kids--it's an astronomical number. We did over 42,000 meals in 2023.
I think her Quilt donations, over the years, have provided somewhere around 30,000+ opportunities for our littles to eat!! When you play, you are a part of all that tummy filling! Full tummies are necessary to support learning....you all know that!
We are honoring Hilda’s birthday with a very special raffle!
Trillion cut Tanzania ring donated by Michelle Woodruff and Coach Bag donated by Karla Davis. $10 Raffle Ticket (1 Entry) $50 Raffle Ticket (6 Entries) As always, all proceeds go to support our wee Sunflower Kids!
Tammy Green and Dana Hinkle have joined to provide some very fun items for the final draw of 2023!
Coral/Silver Cuff Bracelet, value around $300 = or -! Coach Accordion Zip Bag: $225 Turquoise Pendant: $150 Hand-knit, super delicate scarf/shawl knitted by Dana. Value? No idea, but exquisite. As always, ALL—every last bit of it—the proceeds will go towards caring for our Sunflower Kids!
Betty Mathews has done it again! She created and donated this wildly gorgeous hummingbird star quilt to Sunflower Kids!
Hummingbirds have migrated south, but some lucky person will be reminded of their unique beauty and feel the warmth through the coming cold season. As ALWAYS, when you play, our kids win! For every $10 chance purchased, the 'to wee ones tummies' will be warmed and filled with nutritious porridge for 3 days! What a great way to start their busy, fun-filled days at StepByStep Daycare.
Wow! We are humbled by 10 years of filling tummies and minds! Over 300,000 meals/snacks served to our kiddos - all because you stepped up to the plate to make a difference!
We can't stop now! So, this month are having two events. One on line and one at Wild Iris in Lander. Today, we begin an online raffle for this tanzanite necklace.
