Every month we will be spotlighting a JustServe opportunity in various areas of our Stake. This month is The Giving Doll.
The Giving Doll, in Wadsworth and provides an excellent opportunity to serve. Many of the members of the Wadsworth Ward have enjoyed volunteering there.
The Giving Doll was founded by Jan Householder when a friend’s daughter was hospitalized with an inoperable brain tumor. At this point, they have given over 59,000 dolls to children around the world.
The Giving Doll’s Mission is to give faith, love, joy, hope, and comfort to children worldwide, at times of special need through the construction and distribution of handmade cloth dolls.
To volunteer, visit their website, http://www.thegivingdoll.org/home.aspx.
