Sickle Cell Family Day was definately one of them. To be a part of this educational fun day was so heart warming.There was actually a line to wit for the Polished Girlz!<br />
There were a young group of praise dancers performing which shows that there are so many creative ways for young people to express themselves. You had the youth volunteers from Polished Girlz making the girls feel beautiful on the outside, and the wonderful group of dancers filling our hearts on the inside.<br />
Today Was a <strike>good</strike> great day!<br />
You Go Girlz!<br />
<br />
The Polished Girlz would also like to send a warm welcome to NU NU! Our newest volunteer! NuNu is 11 yo nd did an amazing job on her first polish event! We cannot wait to see you again NuNu you are a rock star!<br />

Today Ms Olivia got a visit from her niece who she does not get to see very often because she lives in a different state, fortunately for us I am obsessed with picture taking and the Polished Girlz were there to give them both treat so it was a win win for all of us!<br />

So far in January we have been able to serve the Children's Medical Center, the Down Syndrome Association, the United Rehabilitation Services, and have added to our list of clients Mended Little Hearts in both Ohio and Illinois. We re also in the process of starting teams across the US.<br />
We get so excited about the opportunity to serve, and the opportunity to have our volunteers all over serve children that are in the hospital and children with special needs. <br />
One of the coolest things that has happen for us was our Partnership this Holiday Season with Orly Beauty,one of the nations top nail polish manufactures. Not only did we get to tour their facility in California where they treated Alanna like an Angel, but they surprised us by naming a Polish after us, Polished Girlz Pink! How cool is that!<br />
We have been able to try out the Polished Girlz Pink on several of our clients and I must tell you they are in Love! And we love when we give these girls something that they love. <br />

They received some news that would keep her in the hospital for a day or so extra and she was not excited about that at all. She had a couple of her friends that were able to visit here during her stay and they were still there when the Polished Girlz came to visit. What started off as a boring time in a small hospital room with a dear friend ended up being a cool spa date between girls, the smiles were endless and we could not be more proud. Instead of sending one volunteer to her room we sent a team of three cool teenagers with all of the glitter and stickers you could possibly think of and the Polished Girlz Spa was official open in her room.<br />
They enjoyed every minute of the pampering and so did we. To hear her mom talk on the phone and say "we, are gonna be home late, the girls are getting Mani's, <em>Yes</em> in the hospital." was one Polished Feeling, and believe me it was our <em>pleasure</em>!<br />

<br />
They are the kids that often times are not treated the same, or receive the same care free day to day that a lot of children are so privileged to have, but they smile and show love and gratitude for everything that they have been blessed with anyway.<br />
<br />
Yesterday we polished {K} at the Down Syndrome Association. This was not the first time that we had the privilege of adding sparkle and shine to Ms {K} but it was the first time that I had ever been approached by her Dad. Such a loving and proud father of few words. He said to me, "you know, I just want to thank you guys for polishing her, I cannot believe that she is now walking around with her hands up just to make sure that the nails dry," and he gave a smile that you could tell meant so much more than a Dad that was happy to see his daughter with half dry pink glitter nails. As I looked over at {K} I realized that not only was she holding up her hands, but she was holding up her chin, looking straight ahead at the glitter and sparkle, and she looked around the room as if to check if anyone else saw her new hands and new smile.<br />
It was at that moment that the Polished Girlz Organization clicked even more than it ever had before. I was a witness to a young girl holding her hands and her head up for maybe not the first time, but for a really important time, because she was proud and felt beautiful, and that was my Thanksgiving Gift this year.<br />
<br />
With Love~<br />

Born in 2000, Alanna truly is a new millennium girl. She wanted to combine her love of drawing and nail design for different projects and she knew that she was too young to volunteer at most organizations. Nevertheless, Alanna's compassionate spirit made her want to share her talents with young ladies that were hospitalized or not feeling quite as “polished”, so she decided to start her own organization. Add a mission of hand washing, infection reduction, and a few like minded friends, and the “Polished Girlz” were born. Born to Rock, Born to Shine, and Born to Serve!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Fast forward through year one, and what started as a single girl with a dream and her mom, has grown into hundreds of children served and almost 100 registered volunteers and counting! We are excited to continue with Alanna's vision as it spreads throughout the United States and are quite excited to Polish the girls of Ghana West Africa in June 2012, in conjunction with the <a href="http://www.brownlearningcenter.org/"><span style="color: black;">Brown Learning Center</span></a>. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">The Polished Girlz are available to polish for hospitals, support groups, chemotherapy centers, dialysis centers, and private referred clients.

We polish for them every month, and every month we are excited about what stories our girls have, how well they are doing in school and how amazing their lives are. You see they have special needs but they are just as special if not more special than every other child that I have ever met. They had the coolest costumes ever, from Perfect Princess, to a Polished Pirate, a little ladybug, and a baby Buckeye (Go Ohio!)<br />
I am grateful to Alanna for starting this organization to teach us all about caring for people that we would not have ever expected to meet, to care for and to love. I would like to think that these girls are just a chance encounter on life's road but I know that each and everyone of them will be a part of our lives forever. We went on a cruise and had to miss the month of August, while at sea Alanna remarked, "what about our girls, they will be waiting on us." The funny thing is that I felt the same way.<br />
You see, all my adult life I have been paid to be a nurse and I have had a remarkable life as a nurse, but I have never been so rich as working for this organization for free.<br />
Happy Fall, Happy Halloween<br />

First, it was such an honor to be there bringing smiles to the patients and their families, but more than that it showed our young volunteers how special their peer to peer support really is. Not often are you able to witness so much care, and love between young strangers and we were so proud of them. I would like to personally thank the Vandaila Butler Varsity Volleyball team!<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">I know that the Vandalia Butler Varsity volleyball team is used to taking the ball and spiking it, but this past Wednesday their performance as volunteers for the non profit organization Polished Girlz.org let us know that they were a team of true All Stars.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">The Polished Girlz organization was founded by 10yo Alanna Wall. Now, 11, Alanna’s teams of volunteers have served close to 300 special needs, and hospital clients, including children in <state><place>Ohio</place></state> and <state><place>Illinois</place></state>. </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">The Polished Girlz mission is simple; teach hygiene and hand washing to children with special needs, or that are hospitalized by having their peers polish and create nail art on their nails. This peer to peer support leads to increase self esteem, self perception, and for some very sick children a chance to just feel “normal” like they are hanging out with friends.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">Led by Alanna and Vandalia Butler Varsity <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Volleyball senior classmen Kyla Nardecchia, Alyssa Ryerse, Whitney Barftknecht and Alisha Rakestraw as well as coach Stacey Whetstone the entire team came out to polish the children at Children’s Medical Center as Polished Girlz volunteers, lifting the spirits of the children and their families.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">“We simply could not have done it without all of these girls; they were an active example of everything Alanna hoped the Polished Girlz would become” says Polished Girlz Executive Director Valerie Ragland RN BSN.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And what did our young founder think when this team of teens came to help her serve, she stated “I feel like they did a great job and they definitely put a sparkle in all of the patients lives today!” Coach Jeff Kreill even stated that the girls were still talking about the event in school the next day and recanted how each time he asked a team member how it went he got a “hand to the heart” and they said how much they loved it.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">The entire Polished Girlz family would like to recognize the Vandalia Butler Varsity Volleyball team for their support, dedication and hard work. We could not have done it without them.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgavcZJRHpjJwULjE5YXnPwl9BiA0ThD9oZyUygTi72_LlOXG7wUh2VcmgiYjocJ-4Jdg5HbJd8ZRkpR93jzWvv1k1cSQ7QaFqsa91rkfFwfN8fQjT8IWg21oTbwFOLza-b9W42U0L0YiuB/s1600/12+paper.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" rba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgavcZJRHpjJwULjE5YXnPwl9BiA0ThD9oZyUygTi72_LlOXG7wUh2VcmgiYjocJ-4Jdg5HbJd8ZRkpR93jzWvv1k1cSQ7QaFqsa91rkfFwfN8fQjT8IWg21oTbwFOLza-b9W42U0L0YiuB/s320/12+paper.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

All three of these goals are within our reach if we help our girls to realize that they are wonderfully and beautifully made, worthy to give and have the best of themselves everyday, all day. we are all special so really we are serving ourselves don't let tiles and names keep you from learning what is phenomenal and awesome about every young lady that you meet. <br />
With Love,<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The Polished Girlz had he pleasure of polishing for the Chicagoland MDA camp! It was our very first camp experience and I must say these girls were amazing. Not only did they greatly appreciate the Polished Girlz visit but we were able to see their talents at work. The Fabulous {A} was able to do the makeup like a Hollywood Celebrity Artist. I was our pleasure to share time with these girls and we look forward to working with them again next year. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There is no better joy than to watch these young volunteers serve their peer and I am so grateful and thankful for them.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-544261561243684273.post-51641478448902926842011-06-30T18:27:00.000-07:002011-09-17T18:43:53.931-07:00Baby Elijah ~ A "Polished" RecoveryToday was a good day! <br />
<br />
Baby Elijah the young infant that was critically injured when his family vehicle was struck was a vision of perfect health today. The Polished Girlz were privileged to polish for a special fundraising event for Baby Elijah when he was still in intensive care at Children's Medical Center. It is so awesome to see him smile laugh and experience his new life post accident, with the joy of living at home instead of the hospitals. Elijah we are so very proud of you and even though you have a long road ahead of you we proud that we could support your family event and that you let us see your beautiful smile.<br />
