A number of years ago, artist and children’s book author Donna Green began to think outside the traditional healing box and began to put into action an unconventional approach to helping children with cancer. Having illustrated a new edition of The Velveteen Rabbit, she decided to turn her small dairy farm into the official home of the rabbit that had brought her to places like the White House in Washington, DC and sharing tea with the Duchess of York to discuss children in crisis worldwide.

In 2006, Donna met with officials from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Assistant to the President on domestic affairs and projects for the First Lady Laura Bush and with leading medical organization networks, e.g. CureSearch, to go after the causes of cancer as well as the cures – to combat disease from both ends.

Since then, Magical Moon Farm has become a place for children to recharge from the rigors of medical regimes related to their illnesses. Donna continues her mission by nurturing and empowering children facing medical struggles, and she educates them on how to make their bodies strong, to keep their minds focused on the future, and to feed their spirits with fun and possibilities.

Monique Miller-McCarthy is Donna Green’s daughter. She’s been helping her mom run the Magical Moon Foundation at the farm since its creation.

Monique graduated valedictorian from duCret School of Art in 2009 with an impressive portfolio of portraits under her belt. She renders commissioned oil portraits during the winter months and during the summer operates her own garden pruning and maintenance business called Green Girl Gardening, which she has owned since she was fourteen.

Monique is an integral part of the Magical Moon Foundation, working tirelessly alongside her mom to make things more fair for the families on this difficult journey.

Her personal mission though is focusing on some of the causes of cancer as she helps to build a healthy earth kingdom in honor of all the children she is inspired by daily.
