Read what one Etsier said in this post about Carole:
wunderkrafts says:
This is kind of a long story - so bear with me!!My son who just turned 2 in October almost died when he was 3 months and was subsequently hospitalized 8 times thereafter. So many people helped me out at this time.I have been thinking after I read this story and I have come up with an idea how I could "Pay Something Forward".I am going to make 5 pieces of jewelry and put them in my shop in the afternoon over the next 5 days -- All the proceeds will go to the foundation. I will post the first piece later this afternoon. It is going to be a Owl bracelet. I picked the Owl for wisdom - in hopes that Caroles doctors will have some!! Unlike some of my son's doctors.I hope people will look in and like them well enough to buy the pieces!!I am going to name it the "Carol Liver Fund Jewelry".If this offends anyone - please convo me and I will not do it.Thanks for reading!!

Etsy is a caring community as shown by the author of this blog. She has items in tackyhandmade.etsy.com and tackybackintime.etsy.com Always leading a hand, her heart and her inventory to help a worthy cause.
It is a pleasuer to be in such good company. My prayers are with Carole and her family that they will receive the blessing of a healed Carole.
I sure hope Carole gets everything she needs to get on that road to better health. All my best wishes.
We have 7 sales as of right now! I keep replacing sold items in our treasury. Thank you to all those who have donated and purchased items.
Now up to 15 Sales, everyone is doing so well! Christie snagged a wonderful Treasury and sales soared!

Make certain to put "in honor of Carole Stites-Luka"
As a crossing guard for 22 years, she once saved a childs life, she also would purchase hats and gloves in bulk so no child would be cold! Now it's her turn!
