New Fundraiser - Handcrafted tile pendants

The Cohen Foundation of Maryland is now selling handmade Scrabble tile pendants with origami paper designs. The patterns are bright and fun, and easily interchangeable on any chain. They are made from recycled Scrabble® tiles with predominantly non-toxic materials. The pendants are perfect affordable gifts for any occasion- holiday gifts, bridesmaid gifts, gifts for teachers, stocking stuffers, or a cheery way to let someone know you are thinking of them.

As always, the Cohen Foundation of Maryland covers ALL the costs to create the pendants, so 100% of your payment goes directly to medical research! So you should feel good about giving them as gifts or buying a few for yourself. The pendants cost $15.00 (free shipping, since we cover all costs) and don’t include a chain.

Please email us if you are interested.
