Through the gift of a baby doll (doll therapy) , Angel Embrace brings Comfort & Companionship to those living with Dementia/Alzheimer's and to children experiencing illness, trauma or hardship.
Each doll is thoughtfully selected, dressed to reflect the recipient's interests and accompanied by a name and adoption certificate.
When gifting the dolls, Angel Embrace hosts special Adooption Parties at memory care communities, complete with festive decorations, treats and heartfelt ceremonies. These events foster a sense of celebration of the individual, connection and love.
Angel Embrace has distributed Comfort Dolls to all pediatric hospitals in the St. Louis area. The dolls are often used by the medical staff to demonstrate procedures (such as a trach) and given to the child to keep following the procedure.
For those living with Dementia/Alzheimer's, holding/caring for a baby doll may:
-Bring Emotional Support
-Produce a Calming Effect
-Ease Loneliness
-Reduce Anxiety/Agitation
-Improve Social Interations/Communications
As a small 502(c)(3), nonprofit, Angel Embrace relies on donations to continue it's mission. Contributions help cover the cost of the dolls, personalized clothing and special touches that makes every gift unforgettable.
