Each plush friend given we do it with intention, love, and purpose. Their positive messages and warm fuzzy hugs help children feel loved, appreciated, comforted, and bring a much needed, big boost to their self-esteem. We are very appreciative for your generosity and creativity as we create positive, inspiring, encouraging and empowering messages that will be attached to each stuffed animal.Available Shifts
