Here at Middle Bee, we would like to provide basic wellness supplies to our Chicago lupus community to ensure that everyone is keeping safe. The year 2020 was a very tough year for us all and we are glad to still have you with us today. We will be giving away prepackaged supplies filled with lots of goodies that we're sure you will enjoy. If you're in need of a package, please contact Breann Carroll at info@themiddlebeefoundation.org
Brandi's Lupus Relief Grant
A mother's love:
"God gave me three beautiful Bee's and one has left the beehive. She's soaring on her own in a place full of honey. She feels the sun on her face and the wind on her neck. Fly bumble bee fly! Mommy loves you and you will never be forgotten."
-Love, Mama
