Professional Profile

My name is Joyce Lucas.
I am the founder of the Pink Slipper Project.

Each year, hundreds of thousands of women and children are forced to leave their homes and seek safety and healing in shelters across the country. Through participation with the Pink Slipper Project, you can make a difference in the lives of a few of those women and children and remind them that someone is thinking of them. They are not alone.

We are so excited to be moving into our second year of The Pink Slipper Project. We hope that the challenges we post and the contributions that we receive will inspire you to help us heal hearts and warm toes of women and children everywhere that have had their lives touched by domestic abuse.

What Is the Pink Slipper Project?

Inspired by Terry Grahl of Enchanted Makeovers, and hand-in-hand with the the members of Make Mine Pink, the Pink Slipper Project is an endeavor to warm the hearts and the toes of women and children living in shelters. Our goal is to provide hand-made slippers to as many women and children that we possibly can.

Not only will these handmade slippers help keep the recipients warm, they will be a daily reminder that someone cared enough about them to make something special just for them. It's really true, a simple kindness goes a long way in the healing process.

Your slipper contributions don't need to be pink, and they don't need to be made using our one seam rag slipper pattern, but they do need to be handmade, warm and, of course, new.
