What can a stuffed animal do?
It can wipe away tears and help a small child be comforted.
Members of the Cherokee County Retired School Personnel have been working on community projects that will help support others in need, particularly young people.
They recently distributed over 300 stuffed animals to the sheriff’s department, police department, fire department and ambulance department.
