The Papaw Smiles Foundation

08/11/2026

I was making us bracelets to wear with our outfits to Disney. And Ella INSISTED that we make some to give the princesses. Then she said that there would be a lot of kids there and we should probably make some for those kids ! This was her idea. She has such a giving heart. I really believe she would take her own and give it away. Sooooooo I pulled my stash of beads out from when I used to sell bubble gum necklaces and bracelets. And we’ve been at work off and on for over a month. We’ve made close to 150 necklaces and bracelets to take to Disney and give out ! She’s been with me every step of the way. Yes I made two or three to her one. But I would make one and show her the basic color pattern. And she would sit and do the rest!

We hope to spread some smiles along the way !

We’ve done:

Cinderella
Belle
Snow White
Moana
Pocahontas
Rapunzel
Jasmine
Ariel
Tiana and tinkerbelle
Mirabell
Encanto
Mickey and Minnie
Elsa and Anna
Sleeping beauty and Marie the cat.

AND since we are gonna be there for the Halloween party. We have :

Jack and Sally bracelets
Hocus pocus
And although it’s not Disney…. We know Captain Jack will be there and so we made some Edward scissor hands bracelets ! I’m sure people in line to see him will love those !
We also made the evil queen and maleficent bracelets !

On behalf of me and my family, We are very proud to announce that we will be giving out atleast one ambassador award per year (maybe more ) to people who exhibit the same / similar qualities my dad had, to honor his legacy and support our mission.
We do not take this lightly , this is meant to be a very prestigious award. !

If you would like to nominate someone please feel free to message us privately and tell us all about that special someone !

We are looking for individuals who have a humble and giving heart. Someone who has a wonderful positive outlook on life. Someone who gives freely. Someone who is selfless. Someone who is admired and respected among their peers and community.

We want to give back to our community and keep the smiles coming. Stay tuned for more updates!
