When Lillian is finished with her dresses，her daughters deliver them to “Little Dresses for Africa” ，founded in 2008 in Michigan．Its founder，Rachel O’Neill，says 2.5 million dresses have been distributed to orphanages，churches，and schools in Africa．Rachel says she’s traveling to Africa again and hopes to be able to present to a child one of the dresses personally made by Lillian．
