I have a contest for all of my new reborn family! Everybody has a doll they never sold or thought one of these days I will sell her…I will personally order the kit of your choice (BB) if you donate a reborn to your closest nursing home, by Christmas eve. I will need a Photo of you presenting the doll and the email of the nursing home to verify… Someone is waiting for your baby…Please remove all magnets as they interfere with pacemakers…

Hey Linda I am not sure what the contest part of this is -so if we donate a baby you will put our names in a hat and if we win we get the kit of our choice ? Sorry if I am being dumb -have been at the hospital with Hubbys Mom for 3 days -no sleep !!!

Thank you!
I’m not exactly sure what that last post was about regarding “how many people don’t want to give to charity…” but please don’t assume anything in life. I for one have donated much throughout my life without hope to gain for myself, including the purchase of a new doll kit. I give throughout the year, not just at Christmastime, and ask nothing from anyone, and I have often done so anonymously. THAT is a true gift.
With that being said, I do sincerely hope that I misunderstood a comment that could only be construed as judgmental, and an unjust one at that. A gift is just that - a gift - no strings attached.
I have in fact this year donated a doll to a young girl at the Goodwill shop in town as she has watched me shop for gently used infant clothing all year and because I knew she would appreciate it.
I don’t need photos or a new doll kit to validate my gift to her. I had her surprise and delight when I handed it to her.

The women come alive when they are given a gift like this…I am just hoping that I can touch people around the world that needs a merry christmas. Please if you want to help contact your nearest nursing home and donate a baby. You as an artist can undersrtand that not anyone can give such a gift… And whats wrong with a new kit and a little publicity… I to understand the Surprise and delight when giving such a gift and I also know how it is cherishes.

My post to you did not make alot of sense but I will try this… I am the Grandmother of 3. 2 of my grandchildren were born with disabilities. I also worked my entire life with the DD poplulation so I appreciate anything you have contributed to them. All I am doing is trying to get folks to experience the giving of the season as you already know is the best feeling in the world. I mean no harm or judgment I just want to do what I can to help people I know would benefit from these dolls. Have you been to a nursing home lateley… It is so very sad…I just dont want my life to end like that…
Linda, I want to Thank You for thinking of other for the holidays!!! I would donate to the nursing home but I have already sent 4 babies to the childrens hospital where my sister in law works now I am out of babies!! Maybe next year!! I hope you have a Very Merry Christmas!!!
Thank you Linda for your reply and I sincerely appreciate your generosity. I apologize if I misunderstood.
Linda how very thoughful of you…I have made my donation baby for this holiday season already to a child who is struggling emotionally with lots of adult baggage right now. I just wanted to say bless you for encouraging other to give as well. Nursing home are most welcoming to have these dolls. I have several dolls in nursing homes and they are well loved.
Please read this post, A very nice person on here has really made a good point regarding this baby giveaway…Thank you, I just get swept up with thing sometimes. She very nicely pointed out that there does not need to be a contest or giveaway to encourage people to give this time of year. Everybody does give throughout the year without having to recieve anything. So I am sorry if I offended anybody and I am sure everyone will give with their hearts this season so I will not be offering the doll kits…Thanks for your response, and thanks to that special person who opened my eyes.Merry Christmas to all.
I donated to the angel tree and I did it anonymous as I could. LOL Sometimes people figure out who did it anyway.
