Welcome to the Metro Detroit Chapter of Queen for a Day and Heroes-Michigan.
Queen for a Day (QFAD) and Heroes are national non-profit charities whose
mission is to raise the self esteem and confidence of children 3-21 with
cancer.
 
We do this through personal visits and group parties where we offer makeovers,
crafts, manicures, games, temporary tattoos and entertainers. Girls receive
boas and tiaras donated by beauty queens, boys receive fireman hats, and a
badge. All children receive a keepsake photo and gift.
While Queen for a Day and Heroes primary focus is on children with cancer, all
children that are patients at the time of our hospital visits, are invited to
participate as we feel any child that is ill and a patient needs a bit of extra
attention.
 Participating Michigan
hospitals: William Beaumont-Royal Oak, St. John Hospital-Grosse Pointe,
Children’s Hospital of Michigan-Detroit, Mott Children’s Hospital–Ann Arbor and
Hurley Hospital-Flint
Visits with children also take place at Camp Quality-Fenton, Camp
Quality-Petoskey, Gilda’s Club-Royal Oak. QFAD also does individual visits for
children at home or in the hospital.
A special thank you to our everday heroes that work to bring smiles to the
children!
