A Cure for SMA, found on ETSY

For those of you who are not familiar with the site etsy.com, it's an online marketplace for all things handmade. I am a huge fan of this site, even when I use it just for inspiration. There are some absolutely amazing things out there - there are some amazingly talented people in the world. Some shops even donate all their proceeds to charity (brownie points, baby) and some of them even are exclusively devoted to finding a cure for SMA!

As an etsian and SMAian, I would like to share a few of my favorite "SMA Cure" shops with you!


From the shop SayWhatCreations, this necklace was inspired by a little boy with SMA, and can be customized with your own phrases and names. For all things bought from this shop, 10% will be donated to help find a cure for SMA.
The shop can be found here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/SayWhatCreations?ref=seller_info


This neck support was inspired by the same little boy who inspired the necklace above, Nathan. This shop is called BusyBee Sewing for SMA and features neck supports and oxygen tank covers. 100% of proceeds go to funding SMA research.
The shop can be found here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/BusyBeeSewingForSMA?ref=seller_info


This little owl necklace was inspired by a little girl with SMA, and $5 from this pendant sale will go to SMA research. I believe this is the only pendant in this shop, JubilantWares, that is linked to SMA.
Her shop can be found here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/jubilantwares

There are many others out there! I would recommend spending some time on etsy to check things out!

Here are some links to other SMA themed shops:

    Hi Havannah
    I am so glad to read about you. Thank you so much for featuring my pendant here. My 8 year old daughter and I did a craft faire that was held to fundraise for SMA research and Getty and we were both very moved and decided that this was going to be our main fundraising group. My daughter Sarisha was making her little flip n switch bottlecap pendants and made $60 out of which she gave $20 to Getty fund. She has read about SMA and talks to anyone who will listen about.
    I wish you all the best thank you/ Gayathri
