💙 TOGETHER WE INSPIRE GIVING. 💙
Last night, we had the honor of hosting a TWIG II meeting here at Marion Flower Shop.
After a floral demonstration and some delicious refreshments provided by Crumlie's Bake House, the TWIG II leadership shared more about their organization—and their efforts to bring new members into this incredible local group.
But what exactly IS TWIG II?
TWIG stands for “Together We Inspire Giving,” and what they give back to our community is pretty amazing.
Established in 1957, TWIG II focuses its support on OB/GYN, Pediatrics, and Forensic Nursing at our local OhioHealth facilities.
That support takes many forms:
🧸 Toys for pediatric patients undergoing surgery or imaging
👕 Clothing for patients receiving care through the forensic nursing team
💙 Memory boxes and grief-recovery materials for parents experiencing a loss
And that’s just the beginning.
Over the past five years alone, TWIG II has contributed more than $100,000 toward important equipment and improvements, including an EBUS, bilirubin machine, blanket warmers, colposcope, patient bed chairs, a chapel, and much more.
More than $100,000.
From a group of local people simply committed to making a difference.
That’s an incredible accomplishment—and it doesn’t happen without people, time, and dedication.
So, if you have a big heart, some time to give, and you’re looking for a meaningful way to serve your community, maybe TWIG II is your calling. 💙

It was our pleasure to host TWIG II, and we hope last night’s meeting leads to some new faces, new members, and even more giving from this already incredible organization.
Together We Inspire Giving.
And Marion is better because of it. 💙
