Dress Up Dollars

Let's Celebrate!!
August will mark the first year of The Princess Alexa Foundation! We have worked hard to bring happiness to hundreds of children through dress up and play. Everyone has been touched by the smiles of little princesses and superheroes across the country which has only cemented into our hearts the goodness of our mission.
To celebrate our one year anniversary, please consider donating to our cause so we can continue this work for many years ahead. 100% of your donation goes directly to the children we serve. Be a hero yourself and send us Dress Up Dollars!

This is Jordan - a young Leukemia fighter who received a Dress Up Delivery from us earlier this year. Her mother recently joined our board and is the operations manager for the local Teacher's Tools Stores.

Throughout the month of August (beginning Monday August 3rd), Teacher's Tools will be accepting donations at all four of their Dallas/Fort Worth locations. Teachers, Parents and anyone who has children in their lives will love these unique stores filled with items to inspire creative learning and imaginative play. Thank you to the owners and staff of Teacher's Tools for this generous effort!

Our Children's House Baylor-Dallas Dress Up Chest

In the heart of Downtown Dallas, there is a special place called Our Children's House (OCH). It is appropriately named as that is where many children learn to live - it becomes their home for however long they need it to be. The young patients at OCH Baylor in Dallas are there for many reasons- some are dealing with birth disorders, others are healing from serious illnesses and still others are recovering from traumatic injuries. Despite their differences, they all have one thing in common- they are all sick children who need happiness in their lives- an escape from reality.

We are humbled to serve these often forgotten children. In June, The Princess Alexa Foundation placed a Dress Up Chest in OCH's newly redesigned playroom and filled it with costumes so these children can take advantage of the joy playing dress up brings. A short time later, we supplied six OCH outpatient therapy facilities in the DFW area with dress up clothes they use to inspire the children they treat. Our Children's House at Baylor is a wonderful organization that we are proud to support! Special thanks to Kennedy Legal Firm of Dallas for sponsoring the closets and Little Adventures for supplying the comfortable, washable dress ups for these adorable children.
