There are over 600,000 children in the foster care system and many were placed without any personal belongings. My Stuff Bags is an organization that works with child welfare, Department of Human Services, CASA, local law enforcement, and many other agencies in every state across the nation. My Stuff Bags puts together duffle bags full of toiletries, other personal items, blankets, and a few toys. These bags serve a big purpose: they are designed to give hope, offer comfort, and provide a small dose of humanity in a crisis situation. Most importantly, these bags are designed to let these children know that even in a world of darkness and fear, they are cared for, worthy, and most importantly, loved.
This week, I am partnering with this incredible organization to collect donations that will be used to purchase items for these bags. For younger children, I will provide a Cuddle Bear Set. Each set contains a soft plush bear for the child to hold onto as well as a wonderful book that delivers a message of hope and love. Older children will receive two activity books, No Worries and Hello Happy. Both designed to give a creative outlet for depression, worry, anxiety, fear and all the other emotions a traumatized child may need to work through.
Usborne Books & More, the company that sells these books and for which I am an Independent Consultant, will match EVERY donation by 50% so that our work can stretch even further!!
I am asking you to partner with me and consider making a contribution to this cause. 100% of every donation will go directly to this book drive.
Every little bit counts and please help me to share this campaign with everyone you know! My goal is to raise $2,000 so that we may provide $3,000 worth of books to My Stuff Bags and these amazing children. Thank you in advance for your generosity!
