Happy Women's History Month!
 
Today we want to spotlight Ms. Brenda McQuay, an amazing woman and volunteer with Mikey's Miracle Foundation. Ms. Brenda is a breast cancer survivor who selflessly provides meal prep and nutrition services to those in our community who need it most. Her acts of kindness and dedication have touched countless lives, and we are honored to have her as a part of our team.

It's the most wonderful time of the year. Families
It's the most wonderful time of the year. Families come together to celebrate, and people worldwide prepare to say goodbye to the old year and toast to the new one. However, when battling cancer, the joy of the season can be stressful. While managing day-to-day activities can be difficult, it becomes increasingly challenging to enjoy amid the holiday hustle.

At Mikey's Miracle Foudation, Inc., we know that it isn't easy. For the last six years, we have worked to alleviate some of the stress of the holidays by providing free hot meals for patients and their families in the fight against cancer. We have also provided presents for children with parents undergoing treatment for the last three years. 

This year is no different. Purchase a bulb on our virtual #MiracleTree or ADOPT A FAMILY. With seven amazing families, it is our goal to make this an unforgettable Christmas. You may click below to purchase a bulb from our virtual tree or adopt a family by clicking the link in bio!

A special thank you to Xquisite Catering, LLC (@xquisitecatering_by_feliciac) for serving as this year's Christmas meal caterer.

Today is #GivingTuesday! 

"Across America, daughters and sons balance the work of caring for loved ones with the demands of their careers and raising their children. Spouses and partners become caregivers to the ones they love even as they navigate their own health challenges. All of them give selflessly to bring comfort, social engagement, and stability to those they love." - President Barak Obama 

Join Mikey's Miracle Foundation, Inc. as we give back to those who give so much.

Today, we ask for your support of our efforts to donate 50 Caregivers Boxes to caregivers in the Baltimore Metropolitan area. 

The Caregivers Box will include journal notebooks, candles, hand lotion, comfy socks, tea bags, hand-written notes of encouragement, and puzzle books.

The cost of each box is just $27! You may donate using the DONATE button above or the link in our bio.

Caregiving can often have a significant impact on the life of the caregiver in more ways than one. It can make maintaining your physical and mental health more difficult and may put a strain on work and social life.

It’s important for caregivers to take care of their own mental health. Supporting caregivers with information and resources can help them maintain their mental health and better serve loved ones with mental illness. Via: @mentalhealthamerica

It's #NationalCaregiversMonth! Caregivers often provide regular care to a friend or family member with health problems or a disability. This month, let's honor those who support and take care of their loved ones in their time of need and comfort!
