Softening the Edges: Sharon Finn’s Gifts of Comfort
At WellStone Emergency Services, we often witness small acts of kindness that make a big difference. One such act comes from Sharon Finn — a talented pianist, dedicated St. Mary’s volunteer, and creative entrepreneur who crafts beautiful satin and fleece pillowcases through her small business.
Over the past year, Sharon has donated dozens of her handcrafted pillows to the WellStone Pediatric Unit, where children and teens aged 12-18 receive emergency mental health care. The soft texture and thoughtful designs bring comfort during difficult times. Some children have asked to take a pillow home, finding solace in these small, meaningful gifts.
“It’s another way to connect with the children and soften the edges,” she said.
Her kindness reflects WellStone’s mission: helping children feel safe, supported, and never alone. Thanks to Sharon and others like her, our community continues to show up with warmth and compassion, helping these young hearts move toward brighter, more hopeful futures.
Sharon’s story reminds us that giving back doesn’t have to be grand to be impactful. A simple, soft gesture can heal in powerful ways.
