Kids from Rio Contiguo High School in Santa Ana, Calif., sent hand-crafted stained glass angels from www.angelsoflove.org. The angels are not sold. They are given away by the group to provide encouragement to people in difficult circumstances.
The Chemo Comfort Kit, made by Anne Marie Paolucci. Paolucci, a breast cancer survivor, created a "starter kit" filled with products that helped her through chemotherapy, including oral hygiene products, teas and ginger for nausea, warm socks, a sleep cap and more. The kits are available at www.chemocomfort.org.
