Unfortunately, every day in America many children are caught in traumatic, emotional, and transitional situations. That's why in 1997 Cammie Sanders, 2002 Ms. Florida US Continental founded Stuffed Animals For Emergencies (SAFE), to give these children a little joy during these troubling times. SAFE volunteers collect new and gently used stuffed animals and toys to be redistributed to Police, Fire & Rescue, Ambulance Services, Children's Homes, Hospitals, Life Flight, and other emergency organizations. These emergency organizations use the stuffed animals to ease the children's nerves and calm their fears. These donations let the children know you care and give them hope in a world that at times seems so very cold.

Katie's Faves is proud to represent this incredible organization.  We are happy to accept donations of stuffed animals, preferably new and gently used, but we will take them in virtually any condition.  The ones in suitable condition for children will be donated to a variety of agencies throughout Colorado, including The Mountain Resource Center in Conifer, Park County Victims Services and Sheriff's Office, and The Mountain Peace Shelter.  Those that show an overabundance of wear from all the love they have received will be donated to local animal shelters, including the Intermountain Humane Society.  Katie's Faves will be promoting this organization at many of its events and as an company, providing new stuffed animals to the organizations in need throughout the state. 

We are excited to be working for such a worthy cause.  The safety and well being of children is of the utmost priority to Katie's Faves, and we are looking forward to helping those people who help children in emergencies give them a little comfort in what may be a very frightening time.

Please contact jen@katiesfaves.com to make a donation, sponsor a drive, or get involved!!  Or, if you are an organization in need of stuffed animals, please contact us as well to arrange for a delivery.
