Stuffed Animal September with Rotary Club of Ave Maria

Hope isn’t just the name of a teddy bear, it’s what we’re giving kids battling brain tumors this month. From September 1st-28th, we’re collecting NEW stuffed animals for Minds Over Tumors, a nonprofit that brings comfort and joy to children facing brain cancer.

Drop-off locations include:

• The Secret Ingredient

• Way Out Toys & Games

• Stella Rose Way

• Oasis the Kitchen Lounge

• Ledo Pizza

…and more community partners around town!

Bonus: Donate a stuffed animal at The Secret Ingredient and enjoy 20% off one regular-priced item through September 28th. Let’s fill hearts and arms with HOPE together.

Kathleen Fritz-Kathy’s Handmade Journals

Kathy makes each journal from recycled and upcycled materials, everything from discarded envelopes and candy boxes to paper bags, beer boxes, and leftover frame mattes. Every journal is handmade, hand-painted, and hand-bound, making each one truly unique.

Her work has been featured in Cloth, Paper, Scissors, Uppercase Art Journal, and Pages Creative Guide for Bookmaking. Even better? 100% of Kathy’s proceeds are donated to local charities, meaning each journal is a purchase with a purpose.
