A note from Natalie:
Ryan’s Case for Smiles donates whimsical pillowcases to hospitalized children and those going through treatment. These cases give youngsters an emotional boost which helps with the stress and emotional impact of facing a life changing illness. After 4 years as the Rhode Island Case for Smiles coordinator, I am ready to hand this title over to someone who wants to give young patients a reason to smile. And, while doing that, an opportunity to meet the most generous, caring folks who continue to support the cause by making cases…cutting, pinning, sewing, washing, and bagging!

To be honest, it does take time and patience. But I have things organized; I’ll help in the transition…from making pillowcases to delivering, to filling out forms for the national chapter, and keeping accurate records of monetary and in-kind donations to our chapter.

Please consider this position. Co-coordinators are a possibility. Perhaps two friends (or more) would like to take this on and share the responsibilities.

I’m anxious to hear from anyone who is interested, as I am planning to leave this position as of December 1st.

Please consider supporting our chapter by donating your time to making some fabulous, kid-friendly pillowcases for the young patients at Hasbro Children’s Hospital. These youngsters are dealing with life-changing illnesses and the gift of a novelty pillowcase not only brightens their hospital room, but also, brings on a much needed smile!

We gratefully accept any novelty fabric and/or monetary donations to help our chapter continue to supply Hasbro Children’s young patients with the gift of a pillowcase. Our aim: “Helping kids feel better to heal better!”
Please be in touch to see how you can support Ryan’s Case for Smiles RI Chapter.
