Emergency Doll & Bear Dispatch

News, May 7, 2010

Welcome to our new website and our new name! Formerly “The Abused Kids’ Project”, we are now the “Emergency Doll & Bear Dispatch”. If you don’t believe in miracles, maybe you will after reading this story! Just one week ago, this project was in serious trouble. The fund was nearly out of money and there was no foreseeable source of new revenues. After some intense praying, a beautiful angel just showed up unexpectedly, right when we needed her most! Kimberly Lasher, one of today’s hottest and best doll artists has offered to make a one of a kind 23” resin ball jointed doll to benefit the project! This assuredly stunning, but yet to be unveiled, work of art will be sold on eBay, with 100% of the proceeds going to the kids. Members of the Lasher BJDs Yahoo Group have enthusiastically agreed to donate special one of a kind outfits, accessories, critters and more, to go with Kim’s special doll. What an incredible group of ladies! All items will be offered concurrently but in separate eBay auctions, tentatively planned for the third week in October.

But that’s not all! Kim decided that we needed a whole new website for the project, so she built this one—in about 5 days! She also created our new, fabulous logo that only a wonderfully talented artist could have! She purchased the URL and has offered to maintain the site. Before this, we just had a page on my Let’s Play Dolls website. I don’t think very many people found us there. We are hoping to get more exposure here! Thank you, Kim; you are amazing! Because of you, and all the kind people who will find us now, many more hurting children will have comforting companions to brighten their days.

If anyone would like to help, we urgently need cash donations! We need funds to get us through until the auction proceeds come in. THANK YOU, big time, to all of our wonderful supporters! We couldn’t do this without you!

Many hugs,

Nancy
