Greg and Dan talk with Taylor Cole from the Cuddles with Kindness organization about how the nonprofit began and the inspiration behind its mission. Taylor shares her personal experience as a pediatric patient when she was younger and explains how receiving a stuffed animal during a difficult time brought her immense comfort. That moment helped shape the organization’s goal: providing comfort and kindness to children experiencing trauma and hospital stays.

She also highlights the upcoming 17th Annual Cuddles with Kindness Valentine’s Day Drive, which partners with local organizations and businesses to collect stuffed animals for children in hospitals. The community is encouraged to get involved and donate.
