Tonight I participated in a volunteer activity facilitated by Sprint where we assembled "Buddy Dolls" to be donated to Children's Mercy Hospital. I helped cut the patterns..... "flip" the sew patterns inside-out..... and stuff the dolls.
The reason the dolls are 'blank' is because they are used whenever a child is going to have a surgery or procedure done. The doctors draw on the dolls to show the child what will be done, and then the child gets to keep the doll and decorate it however they wish. With 165 volunteers, we made 750 dolls, which should be enough dolls to last Children's Mercy for a full year!
