2020 has been a tough year for all, which is why this Christmas gesture really touched me.
It is amazing how someone can be so selfless.
So I just had to share what Sarah Mellman is doing.
“Hello everyone. It’s the season of giving again.
Each year I try to “adopt” a family in need and help them have a good Christmas.
This year I am not adopting a family per say, like I normally would to make and send dolls to, but am trying to help do a fundraiser for this family.
They have really endured the blunt end of 2020.
The father of the family lost his job after working minimal hours for months because of COVID shut downs.
When he lost his job he lost the insurance they relied on because of many long term medical problems with other family members.
Now the entire family has COVID and are on quarantine. One family member just got out of the hospital with COVID.
But she is still really struggling.
There’s no money for food or rent and this family is in great despair.
I know I can’t help this family financially on my own.
So I’ve decided to gather 70 brand new items from my dolly work room.
I am selling tickets to a drawing for all 70 things.
Every ticket will be a winner.
All proceeds to this drawing will go to this family and help in their time of sincere need.
If everyone can help a little then together we can help a lot.
In this collection of 70 things there is…
*1 brand new painted and rooted full vinyl reborn this baby is a prototype with a $750 value.
Complete with full box opening.
*Several blank unpainted doll kits $30-$80 value each
*several mini resin collectible babies $55 value each
*Painting tutorials $45 value each
*10 packs of colorful print diapers $10 value each
*Bracelets $5 value each
*pacifier clips $10 value each
*magnetic pacifiers $7 value each
*Blankets $7 value each
*crochet hat and bootie sets $25 value each
*blanket and hat sets $20 value each
*baby shoes $8 value
And more.
If you would like to help me help this family and get entered into this drawing for these fun things each ticket is $20.
This will include shipping of your winning item if you are inside the USA.
If you are international you will be responsible for any extra shipping and customs fees for any items you win.
If you would like to donate without participating in the drawing I will give you the PayPal email directly to this family so your donation goes right to them.
Please send me a private message if you would like to enter the drawing.
All money goes right to this family but everything will be shipped from my home.
The Drawing will take place live on Facebook Monday December 14.
And everything will be shipped Tuesday December 15.
Inserted are a few pictures of the reborn that will be won in this drawing.
She is Prototype Parker by Sandy Fabre with a female anatomical torso.
I need to sell al least 35 tickets before I can hold the raffle! ”
