As we move forward in 2024, we reflect on 2023 and the many impactful support services our wig recipients & families participated in. 249 Michigan kids and their loved ones benefited from makeup, skin & nail care, nutrition through our raised therapy garden, themed parties in our Enchanted Tea Room, meditation & relaxation through VR 4 Kids, a field trip to the Detroit Zoo and holiday celebrations & sponsorships. Our kids are important to us and their feedback is crucial to shaping our programming as we continually strive to enhance it with new & exciting offerings at Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan, Inc!
