As some of you may know, my father-in-law Wayne lost his battle with cancer last year. His amazing life devoted to the service of others, gigantic heart with a smile to match, and an incredible child-like curiosity of any and all things made the rest of us who knew him pale in comparison. What an incredible loss for ALL the lives he touched. He will be missed...
In honor of Wayne's memory and legacy, I have recently become part of Etsy Project Embrace. "Etsy Project Embrace (EPE) is a Universal Coalition of Artists whose main purpose is to create awareness and support for people who have been diagnosed with Cancer, whatever kind it may be." Proceeds from some of my handbag sales will be donated to the American Cancer Society, ACS, for cancer research.

This is a nice thing you are doing... Very generous! Nice to know that purchasing a stylish handbag is also helping a worthy cause...
