This 100% silk scarf with hand rolled edges is beautifully designed with the white rose on a soft gold background and shows how we are committed to 'Working Together for the Children'.

Ladies, have you thought about telling our story with these beautiful scarves. They are perfect as gifts or maybe the choir in your Temple would like to wear them with their dresses when they perform. We have Attendants in some Temples wearing them at Stated Sessions and even some interest in the officers wearing them at Stated Sessions. At Supreme Session and again at Imperial Session we were told scarves are the hot item for the fall and winter. Get them while they are hot! Make your check to DONFDN and please add your Temple Number so we can give you the credit.

Order yours today in the Gift Store!

A gold plaque is added to the hospital Philanthropic Wall for each $1 Million contribution.  Daughters of the Nile now has two Gold Plaques in 12 hospitals.  The goal is to place two in each of the 22 Shriners Hospitals for Children®.
