Join Us for a Day of Crafting, Connection & Changing Lives
Operation Smile Charity Crop – Shelby Twp, MI
Twice a year, crafters from all over the greater Detroit area gather for a full day of creativity, connection, and giving back—and YOU’RE invited!
This event is near and dear to my heart. After traveling on a mission trip in 2018 with Close To My Heart and Operation Smile, I witnessed the life-changing power of a simple, safe surgery. One smile—just one—can transform a child’s future, restoring not just their health, but their confidence and hope.
That’s why we host this charity crop—to raise enough funds to give 10 children their forever smiles.
Why 10 Smiles?
Each surgery costs just $240. That’s it. $240 = 1 life changed forever. So our goal is $2,400—enough to give ten children the chance to smile, speak, eat, and live without shame or pain. Every raffle ticket, purchase from the Stampin’ Up! Marketplace (during the event), and donation brings us closer. Together, our creativity can change lives.
