Lucy Belle's Rainbow is proud to sponsor the 13th annual Maroon Madness Event at Lower Merion High School.
Now in its 13th year, Maroon Madness has become a staple in Lower Merion basketball culture. The annual event celebrates the opening of the Aces boys and girls basketball season while building school spirit and launching season-long Coaches vs. Cancer fundraising efforts. Activities include team introductions, an intra-squad scrimmage, on-court fan contests, live music and entertainment, giveaways, and raffles for exclusive, limited edition Aces merchandise. Butterflies are now flying proudly in the Penn Wynne Cafetorium!
At the installation we were at 250 butterflies! We have now been given the GO AHEAD to continue the sale of butterflies in the hopes of having them fly ALL OVER THE ROOM! Butterflies are available to purchase: 1 for $ and 3 for $5 At Penn Wynne. This is a great way to honor teachers, staff and others. Special shout out to Alison Hartstein for her creativity and Keri Kimbrel Berger for taking the extensive time and amazing effort to create and install the most INCREDIBLE quote on the wall! YOU ARE BEYOND TALENTED! 10% of all September+ butterflies sales go to support Lucy Belle's Rainbow Thank you to everyone who donated supplies for our Back To School Haul! Thank you to the Havertown Community Acupunture and The Mudroom!

Meet Macy Bronte. Macy chose to help continue Lucy’s legacy by choosing Lucy Belle’s Rainbow as her Mitzvah project. Macy hails from Narberth, Pennsylvania and is a seventh grader at Welsh Valley Middle School.
Macy learned about Lucy from one of Lucy’s seventh grade teachers, Moira Messick. Lucy was in treatment her entire seventh grade year and Moira made seventh grade a great year for her. She thrived in her classroom. Moira also worked with Lucy’s family and was completely present during the awful period when Lucy became very sick and later died. Through Moira and Moira’s daughter Kate, Macy came to know Lucy even though the two girls have never met. Macy was drawn to Lucy and Lucy’s story and decided that Lucy’s story needed telling. She incorporated her in all aspects of her ceremony – from the invitations to her Torah speech. She collected donations and art supplies and questioned why things like this even happen. It is a lot for a kid to absorb, the bad things of this world. Macy decided that despite the bad thing that happened, something good was coming from it. A tiny drop of Lucy was being placed in every person that Macy told. And those parts were uniting to help kids with cancer, something Lucy felt very strongly about. Because of Macy, Lots of children are going to be able to do something completely normal. They will get to create art and take their minds off treatment, if only for a moment. A drop of Lucy is going into each one of those bags and to each one of those kids. Thank you, Macy, for your work to honor Lucy and to help kids with life threatening illnesses make art and smile. We have teamed up with The Mudroom to present "The Summer of Art Lovin'". For the months of May, June and July, The Mudroom is accepting donations for Lucy Belle's Rainbow. All donations will qualify for $1 off studio fee.
