Support Handmade by Harper + Libi

For their May Term Project, senior sisters Harper and Libi Horn are expanding upon a nonprofit initiative they created in honor of a friend they lost to cancer in 2021. Handmade by Harper + Libi supports pediatric cancer patients by sending them heartfelt, handmade cards filled with messages of joy and encouragement. Through fundraising and community engagement, this duo also donates to Lurie Children’s Hospital cancer research.
 
This month, the sisters plan to visit Intermediate and Upper School classes to give other students an opportunity to decorate and create cards that they will send to pediatric cancer patients, along with selling their own handmade cards to the Parker community to fund pediatric cancer research.

You can support their efforts by purchasing cards in the Front Alcove at the dates and times below.
