Give a Hospitalized Child a
Cuddly Plush Toy Animal
and Get a BIG Smile
0hat Gifts 4 Smiles Does
Each Gifts4Smiles delivery gives fifty ill hospitalized children and sometimes other situation sad, abused little souls a gift of love in the form of a quality designed 16″-18″ huggable animal plush toy to make them smile.
Gifts4Smiles believes a child’s hospital experience can be scary and parental loss or adult abuse is a heartbreak, but when a small child is able to have a plush friend to cuddle and cling to, it can often help the loneliness.
How Gifts 4 Smiles Does It
Gifts4Smiles finds gift needy children’s hospitals (those which do not have a surplus of plush toys) and some foster care providers and determines the gifts to send. Then, 50 plush Puppies, Bunnies, Beagles, Bears and other animal quality plush toys intended for newbies to preschoolers are sent with sincere love from our caring donors, perhaps just like you.
And, when the gifts are received, the lonely and sad little faces beam with big heartwarming smiles because they now have a forever friend. Afterwards, it’s repeat and repeat and repeat whenever enough donations are received to send another delivery of 50 cherished gifts to other hospitalized and vulnerable small souls.
It’s Donor Maker to Toy Maker to Smile Maker
The gifts ship direct from the toy manufacturer to the children’s hospital, or location of the child’s caretaker. The plush toy gifts are all high-quality and from U.S. companies. 100% of all “Public Donations” only go to pay for the gifts wholesale cost and delivery to the recipients. Gifts4Smiles is an ‘all volunteers’ charity, and its management personnel are all volunteers and Partner Donors.
Three Donation Types To Select
Public Donations – 100% of all “Public Donations” only go to the gifts wholesale cost & delivery to the recipients.
Public Partner Donations – 90% of all “Public Partner Donations” go to the gifts cost & delivery and 10% go towards Gifts 4 Smiles fixed operating overhead. Partner donors may either make a moderate donation (say $20) for one, or a more substantial donation to cover the cost to send 50 plush toy gifts to the children’s hospital destinations of their choice (see FAQ).
Corporate Partner Donations – Gifts 4 Smiles can also facilitate a bulk order, wholesale price donation with the donor company’s logo identity, or special message on each cuddly gift friend with distribution to needy hospitals. For further information see ‘FAQ”, or email: inquiry@gifts4smiles.org.
