About this Event

It’s that time of year again—a season of giving, kindness, and remembrance! Join us for our annual makeup and toy drive, a heartfelt tribute to Elizabeth Ponder, the beloved niece of Lincoln, who touched countless lives before passing away at 17 from an incurable immunodeficiency disease. Elizabeth found joy in makeup during her stays at local children's hospitals, spreading smiles by giving makeovers to staff and fellow young patients.

This year, we’re expanding our mission of compassion. In addition to supporting children at local children's hospitals, we’re partnering with Flags Across Appalachia to also assist families impacted by Hurricane Helene. Donations of makeup, toys, or monetary gifts will not only bring comfort to young patients but also help local families facing difficult times.

Let’s come together in Elizabeth’s memory to spread joy, hope, and relief to our community. With your generosity, we can brighten the days of children in hospitals and families recovering from hardship, continuing a legacy of love that Elizabeth’s kindness inspires each year.
