The Fairy Godmother Project

The Fairy Godmother Project is a project of NEWMS (New Expectations for Women in Mississippi). It is a special project of CREATE, Inc., which lends credibility to the project.

The Fairy Godmother Project is the brainchild of many philanthropic women in North Mississippi. It was started only about a year ago from the desire of these women to be able to help those who are less fortunate in our area.

Some examples of things that they have done are:

  1. An elderly couple in our area who both had cancer and were receiving chemo treatments, were sleeping on the floor because they did not have a bed. The Fairy Godmothers provided the couple a bed, linens and pillows.
  2. When a daycare for low income parents did not have shelving for the books and learning materials for their children - the Fairy Godmothers provided the funds necessary to build shelves for the daycare.
  3. When a young mother graduated from the nursing assistant program, but did not have the money to buy her uniforms to start her new job, The Fairy Godmothers bought her uniforms so that she could start her new job with pride and provide for her children.
