More than 100 little teddies are set to bring big much needed comfort to young patients, thanks to a thoughtful donation from two local residents.
Kerrie and Mike donated over 100 beanie babies to Tully Mission Beach Local Ambulance Committee, hoping that the soft toys will provide a great source of comfort for younger patients in what can be stressful, scary situations.
A Facebook post about the donation drew praise and gratitude.
“Thank you! My son had to ride in your ambulance a few times, and he loved the toys he got. It was a big distraction to what was happening. You truly do make a difference. Thank you!” shared one local.
“This donation will bring so much comfort, smiles and a little bit of happiness and i know that is both of your main goals. It’s people like you both who remind us how much kindness and compassion can make a difference. Such a thoughtful donation and something truly special,” shared another.
The donation is an example of how even the simplest items can make a big difference when given a new home, with the small toys becoming much-needed sources of comfort for little ones in need.
