Gracie's Room

My daughter’s classmate, Gracie, lost her life to a rare form of cancer. My daughter, her classmates, our family and community suffer the loss of this bright and beautiful child.I wanted to help provide comfort and happiness to sick kids and their families. As an interior designer by trade I felt that I could contribute my skills and industry resources. It starts with a theme based on an idea or fantasy of the child; from there the mission is in play – transform their space and match their wish. When a child is ill, the bedroom or therapy space becomes the place where hours upon hours are spent gathering, healing, hoping and sharing.  I wanted to help create a special room that focuses on the happy, hoping that the burden can be eased for everyone when their child smiles.
