Cuddles and Comfort is inspired by Maya and Abby’s fond childhood memories that included reading story books and playing with stuffed animals. Maya and Abby -with the help of CoachArt and Budsies- formulated a project plan where children in need are able to expand their artistic and intellectual power. Maya and Abby create special and meaningful personal connections with the children and create both a storybook and a custom stuffed animal for the kids to keep forever to constantly remind them of who they are and the amazing minds they have to be proud of. The inspiration of Cuddles and Comfort with continue as we plan to work with children all over, and continue spreading the confidence and hope they need to change the world.
