Alternatives hasn't added a story.
In November 2017, I was honored to receive the support to donate 64 Cuddle Bear bundles along with several hundred brand new books to the children housed by Alternatives Domestic Violence shelter. A portion of these donations also went to benefit the Scott Carter Foundation benefiting pediatric cancer research.
In November 2018, the shelter's supply of Cuddle Bear plushes and coordinating story books has dwindled and I am expanding my goal to 75 bundles. This year, we'll also include two emotional workbooks for each child as well to help work through issues of anger, sadness, anxiety, and worry.
Alternatives serves six counties in central Indiana and averages 10-20 residents under the age of 18. These are often individuals who find their lives uprooted and in a new place with unfamiliar surroundings through no fault of their own. If a cuddle from Cuddle Bear is any comfort at all, let's make sure they can receive one.
