Our Story – Cuddle+Kind and a Mission to Make a Difference

Being parents to three children has shown the founders of Cuddle+Kind just how vital nutrition is to a child’s growth and development. After watching a documentary that revealed the devastating effects of childhood hunger worldwide, the family made a life-changing decision — to build a company with giving at its core. Rather than relying on donations alone, they set out to create a sustainable business model that could continuously support children in need.

Since September 2015, every Cuddle+Kind purchase has helped work toward the goal of providing one million meals a year, and thanks to the community, more than 37 million meals have already been given to children around the world. Each Cuddle+Kind doll is made from natural, high-quality cotton to ensure it is safe, soft, and cuddly, and is lovingly handcrafted by talented women artisans in Peru, providing them with fair trade, sustainable income.

Driven by passion, purpose, and family values, Cuddle+Kind pours care into every doll they create. Each one represents comfort, compassion, and the belief that small choices can have a powerful impact — helping children thrive while bringing joy to families everywhere.
