Hi, Ed, do you know of an organization that would be interested in taking a lot of beautiful stuffed animals in mint condition? We just cleaned out our older kids’ rooms and we’ve been saving these animals for years. They are very clean and new looking. I’m giving you my number so they can call me.

A few things come to mind. I know that the police have been using stuffed animals in traumatic situations with children to help calm them and feel secure. I’m also certain that any hospital with a children’s ward would probably be interested in these stuffed animals. And, of course, my darling sweetheart at TenderHearts would probably be able to find a good home for a lot of those cute and cuddly stuffed animals. There’s three ideas, but I’m sure our wonderful BackTalk audience will have other ideas.
