Review for Little WORLD Charity, Durham, NC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As the executive director of this charity, I see firsthand what a tremendous impact we have, while stretching our donation dollars to the max. We bring smiles to kids in need at hospitals, special needs homes, and libraries (now a total of 20 locations and growing, see our website). We have zero overhead since I donate my garage and my vehicle, we have zero employees (100% volunteer). Yet we create over 100,000 "smiles" (button presses) a year with our animated, inclusive, non-controversial, whimsical displays.

And now we are embarking on a new program to have future display art made by children, guided by their art teachers. Thus, we will be inspiring kids on the creative side as well as the receiving side. Your donation dollars go 100% to procuring the display cases and contents needed for us to continue to grow. Each display case and contents costs about $2,000. Won't you help with any size donation?

Review for Little WORLD Charity, Durham, NC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Little WORLD Charity, in five years of existence, has grown to eleven year-round locations, including Duke Children's Hospital, two Ronald McDonald Houses, two facilities in Raleigh for severe special needs children, and public libraries here in the North Carolina Triangle. The charity pays zero salaries or compensation, has practically zero overhead, and neither asks for nor receives any funding from the worthy places it serves. The charity's custom made displays are enjoyed approximately 200,000 times a year ("200,000 smiles and inspiration to kids in need). This charity is truly a labor of love and joy. I founded and am the executive director of this tiny charity with a big impact. We always are in need of funds to purchase more display cases and parts, and to mainain existing displays. Here is a link to a television news segment about us. https://www.wral.com/lifestyles/travel/video/16361179/

Two friends and I started this charity in January of 2015. We pay ourselves not a penny. We build miniature, animated, whimsical displays and then put them in children's hospitals and libraries in the North Carolina Triangle. We are in eight locations now. The mission of the charity is to brighten lives and for us volunteers to have fun in the process. To grow further we need volunteers to join us in building more "little worlds" and moving them into more locations. We also need donations as each display costs, on average, $1,500. Donations are tax deductible. Here is the web address for a recent spot WRAL TV did that explains and shows what we do. Please join us!
