A Special Message From Dakota Fanning For Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA Holiday Cards

12 Comments September 20, 2010 by Filed Under: Dakota Fanning

The lovely Dakota Fanning gives a special message in this video for Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA Holiday cards.  

Art has the power to heal, transporting some children to magical places, forgetting about the hospital.  The Holiday Card Art Program strives to create opportunities for “kids to be kids” during an abnormal situation. Artists engage children at bedside to facilitate creative expression during lengthy hospitalizations.  This creative collection features cards of the season created by young patients who share their interpretation of holiday celebrations from the bedside. A collector’s Barbie Card, designed by Mattel, Inc., is also available.

Proceeds from card sales benefit the Child Life/Child Development Program, whose specialists work with young patients at bedside to assist creative expression and ease fear and anxiety during lengthy hospitalizations.

Each box contains 12 Holiday Cards, 5×7 with white envelopes

Early-bird rate of $15 ($6.00 tax deductible) per box through September 30, 2010
Rate of $20 ($11.00 tax deductible) per box after September 30, 2010

Shipping – $5/per box; $12.50 multiples of 3 boxes 

The 2010 Holiday cards are not available yet, but check back soon on their website to place an order.  Go to UCLA Holdiay Cards to learn more!
