Butterflies by Blaq Inc. was able to make this giveaway possible thanks in large part to community and volunteer support.
Butterflies By Blaq Inc. invites the community to further support them through Zelle donations at Butterfliesbbi@Butterfliesbbi.org. Each contribution helps towards making a positive impact on the lives of children facing medical hair loss, whether due to cancer treatment therapies, Alopecia or any other medical conditions.
“We appreciate you! Your support has illuminated the lives of these brave children and we are grateful for the opportunity to spread joy together,” Butterflies By Blaq Inc. Founder Erna Blackman said.
