Pink Polka Dots Supporting Other Fundraisers

September was a busy time for the Pink Polka Dots!


We volunteered at the Seattle Brain Cancer Walk, a very large fundraiser for brain cancer research at Swedish Hospital. Working in the children's area, we painted faces, handed out balloons, and manned prize tables. The event was a huge success--it raised more than $900,000!

We also attended the Seattle Run of Hope, which supports the same lab as we do. It was a fabulous event and raised more than $265,000!

Keep these annual events on your radar. If you're in the Seattle area, you should participate next year!

Pink Polka Dots appear on Our Generation doll boxes!


Battat Toy's "Our Generation" dolls feature inspiring stories on their boxes. Their feature of PPD reads:
"This is Maddy, Kelsey, and Sierra's story. When they were in 6th grade, Maddy, Kelsey, and Sierra lost their very good friend Sydney to a brain tumor. To honor their friend, the girls started the Pink Polka Dots Guild and carried out a garage sale that Sydney had planned, one whose proceeds would go to help people with brain cancer. The garage sale raised $9,000, but the Guild was just getting going. Next came lemonade stands, greeting cards and even an annual golf tournament. Over the last five years, they have collected more than $330,000 for cancer research! It's amazing what three girls can do. Read The Pink Polka Dots Guild's story and others at OGdolls.com."
