Holly Christensen is a wife and homeschooling mom of three children, running her nonprofit ‘The Magic Yarn Project’ from her home. It all started several years ago when she decided to make a soft Rapunzel wig for a friend’s little girl who had been diagnosed with cancer. The wig was a hit…and Holly then started making more wigs for her local hospital, and from there her nonprofit took off. They’ve now delivered over 60,000 wigs to all 50 states and 52 countries around the world.
I loved this interview because Holly really shares some personal and tender stories. And she talks about The Magic Yarn Project's two-fold mission… to not only provide these fun character wigs and beanies to children experiencing hair loss because of cancer treatments or other conditions, but also their desire to give others the opportunity to experience the benefits of service and giving back.
Holly truly lives by the motto of ‘I can’t do everything, but I can do something.’ Listen to this episode to be inspired by her story and also be reminded that even small acts of love can make a difference.
