Events

TWIG Bazaar
The Bazaar is an annual event sponsored by TWIG that has existed for more than 80 years. Members of TWIG spend countless hours crafting both traditional and unique items for the Bazaar. All items are hand-crafted and include: home décor, seasonal items, children’s collectibles and many other wonderful creations.

 

Projects

Parade of Homes
Every year, members of TWIG partner with the Building Industry Association to serve as hostesses at the Foundation House and other homes during the Parade of Homes. The BIA makes a generous donation to support TWIG based on the number of volunteer hours.

Holiday Cards and Greetings Program
Each year, TWIG sells their annual holiday cards to support various programs at the hospital.  The TWIG holiday cards feature artwork by local artists.  A package of 12 cards and 13 envelopes is available with an inside greeting or blank.

TWIG also offers the Greetings from Nationwide Children’s Program. This program, sponsored by TWIG, allows your holiday cards to be hand-signed, addressed and mailed to everyone on your list. Each card notifies the recipient that a gift has been given in their name to Nationwide Children’s.

the Memorial Tournament
The Women’s Division of the Memorial Tournament is the premier organization responsible for coordinating the thousands of volunteers who are essential to the success of this PGA golf tournament. TWIG joins other Nationwide Children’s Hospital Auxiliaries in being an integral part of the volunteer force. Since the tournament's inception in 1976, the Memorial Tournament volunteers have raised over $8 million for Nationwide Children's Hospital.
