Welcome to the
Kiwanis Doll Project.
The Kiwanis Doll is a body shaped doll, 40 cm tall, made of plain cotton and
stuffed with polyester or cotton. Dolls are given to children entering
hospitals or other health care settings. Children who need to undergo
painful procedures are often frightened of what is going to happen to them and
nervous about their strange environments. Kiwanis Dolls can help ease
their pain by providing a diversions and a comfort, by allowing a child to
express feelings, and by helping prepare the child for a procedure.
The
Kiwanis Doll is a FUN and EASY project for you and
your club. Please take a few minutes to learn more about this worthwhile
project and join the thousands of volunteers who are making Young Children:
Priority One.
