We request that all bottles be bid on for the sole purpose of gifting to a person with cancer or for a member of their families.

Thank you for your support for Gilda’s Club Chicago and in honor of the artists of Bottles of Hope.

Polymer clay guilds throughout the U.S. have contributed thousands of bottles over the last decade to cancer patients and their families. Bottles of Hope founder Diane Gregoire continues to advise activities and has approved the selection of Gilda’s Club of Chicago as the recipients of the bottles made for this challenge.
