As nice as it is to discover a personalized key chain lining up with your name in a gift shop, people who have a unique name often don't have that luxury. However, that's not a big deal. There are several other ways to make our luggage stand out, and lots of our places are cluttered up enough.
Nevertheless, there is another case where personalizing keepsakes to match their owners seriously matters and one doll-maker named Amy Jandrisevits is doing her part to make a massive difference.
As she said in her GoFundMe campaign, Amy used to do play therapy with dolls, but she eventually noticed the dolls she used had thick hair and seemed to be in perfect health. Unluckily, that did not describe the kids she was working within the cancer unit.
And so, she began making non-traditional Raggedy Ann dolls. When parents began to hear about what she was doing, they started making requests to suit the differences that made their children special.
In that time, she has made around 300 dolls, and her wait list always seems to have names on it. Each doll costs approximately $100 to make but seeing how excited every kid is to have a doll that looks like them finally is priceless.
And so, she began the GoFundMe to help make that more feasible. Along with paying for the material and shipping costs of the dolls, the funds she connects will transform A Doll Like Me into an official non-profit organization.
It looks as though people are responding to her mission, as she has already raised about $23,000 of her $25,000 goal.
According to Amy's Facebook, she found herself learning how to make different types of dolls as she did this. She created dolls with different limbs at first but then figured out how to also incorporate hand differences, birthmarks, albinism, and burn scars.
After all, anything is worth witnessing a kid look at her creations and say "she's just like me," which is how this little girl reacted to her new doll.
